EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored illustration, titled "Flemish Lady in Waiting," is a stunning representation of fashion and elegance from the 16th century. The image, created by E. Lechevallier-Chevignard and lithographed by A. Didier, L. Flameng, and F. Laguillermie, is taken from the esteemed publication "Costumes historiques des XVIe, XVIIe et XVIIIe siecles" (Historical costumes of the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries) by Georges Duplessis, published in Paris in 1867. The Flemish lady in the print is depicted in a long, vibrant green dress adorned with intricate embroidery along the edges. The dress is accessorized with a matching headdress, adorned with pearls and pink ribbons, that complements the overall look. The lady's pearl necklace and earrings add to her regal appearance. The illustration provides a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of the 16th century, a time when fashion was a reflection of wealth and social status. The intricate details of the embroidery and the use of natural dyes to create the rich green color of the dress demonstrate the skill and artistry of the time. The print is a valuable historical record of the fashion trends during the 16th century and a testament to the enduring beauty and elegance of the Flemish style. The illustration has been carefully preserved and handcolored, adding to its timeless appeal and making it a must-have for any collection of historical fashion or art.
