EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured steel engraving captures the beauty and grace of a Mandarin woman from China, as depicted in a Chinese painting from 1780. The intricate details of her traditional attire and delicate features are brought to life by Polydor Pauquet, a talented artist from the renowned Pauquet Brothers' publishing house in Paris.
The elegant posture and serene expression of the Mandarin woman evoke a sense of timeless sophistication and cultural richness. Her elaborate costume reflects the intricate craftsmanship and vibrant colors that were characteristic of Chinese fashion during this period.
Hippolyte and Polydor Pauquet's dedication to capturing foreign fashions and costumes through their illustrated books is evident in this exquisite print. Their work not only serves as a visual record of historical clothing styles but also celebrates the diversity and beauty of different cultures around the world.
As we gaze upon this enchanting image, we are transported back to 1780 China, where tradition meets artistry in every stitch of fabric and brushstroke on canvas. It is a testament to the enduring allure of ancient customs and the power of art to transcend time and space.
