EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored pochoir (stencil) etching captures the essence of the Belle Époque and Art Deco eras with its depiction of an elegant evening dress in velvet with intricate silver embroidery. The model, dressed in the fashionable attire, stands before a backdrop of porcelain vases, jardinières, and an ashtray, adorned with geometric patterns and a touch of orientalism. The dress, with its rich amaranth velvet fabric and shimmering silver threads, exudes a sense of luxury and sophistication, reflecting the chic tastes of Parisians during this period. The illustration is taken from Tommaso Antongini's Journal des Dames et des Modes, published in Paris in 1912. The journal was renowned for its high-quality fashion plates, which showcased the latest trends and styles. This particular plate, with its captivating design and attention to detail, is a testament to the artistic skill and creativity of Adrien Etienne Drian, the illustrator. The setting of the image, with its ornate pottery and varnished furniture, adds to the overall opulence and allure of the scene. The figure in the dress, with her graceful pose and demure expression, embodies the elegance and refinement of the era. The use of pochoir technique, which involves applying color through a stencil, adds a layer of intricacy and depth to the image, making it a true work of art. This stunning etching is a reminder of the rich cultural history of fashion during the early 20th century, and the enduring influence of the Belle Époque and Art Deco styles. Whether displayed as a decorative piece or used as inspiration for modern fashion designs, this image is a must-have for any collection of vintage fashion illustrations or art deco art.
