EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving from 1797 showcases a woman dressed in a priestess-style gown, exuding an air of elegance and grace. The French School of the 18th century beautifully captures her timeless beauty and style. Adorned with a Greek-style bun raised in a round bonnet, she embodies the sophistication of ancient Greece. Her dress flows gracefully around her, reflecting the fashion trends of the time. Known as "Chinon à la Grecque" it features delicate details that add to its allure. The gauze mantle drapes gently over her shoulders, adding an ethereal touch to her ensemble. Tasselled slippers complete her look, showcasing attention to detail and refinement. This exquisite illustration is part of Pierre de la Mesangeres Journal des Modes et Dames, Paris' volume one collection from 1797. The talented artists Carle Vernet, Claude Louis Desrais, and Philibert Louis Debucourt collaborated on this project to bring these fashionable designs to life. As you gaze upon this print, let yourself be transported back in time to an era marked by both political upheaval and artistic brilliance—the Directoire period during the French Revolution. This image encapsulates the essence of that time—where royalist traditions met republican ideals—and serves as a reminder of the enduring allure found within historical fashion.
