EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving from 1801 showcases a fashionable man or "Incroyable" of the time, exuding style and confidence. The image captures the essence of French fashion during the Directoire period, following the tumultuous years of the French Revolution. The impeccably dressed gentleman is adorned in a perfectly round hat, complemented by a cravat tied elegantly around his neck. His riding coat with large buttons adds an air of sophistication to his ensemble, while breeches and boots complete the look. Notably, he carries a cudgel, perhaps symbolizing both protection and status. This print is part of Pierre de la Mesangeres Journal des Modes et Dames, which was renowned for its illustrations depicting contemporary fashion trends. Volume 4 featured works by esteemed artists such as Carle Vernet, Bosio, Dutailly, and Philibert Louis Debucourt. Through this artwork by Pierre Charles Baquoy illustration (credited as Florilegius), we catch a glimpse into the sartorial choices that defined this era. It serves as a testament to how fashion can reflect societal changes - from royalist influences to republican ideals - during this transformative period in history. Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate and explore these historical prints that capture not only clothing styles but also cultural nuances from centuries past.
