EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite pochoir (stencil) etching captures the essence of early 20th century elegance and sophistication. The image features a woman in an afternoon dress of black velvet and green satin, accessorized with a fur stole and muff. The dress, designed by H. Robert Dammy for Tommaso Antongini's Journal des Dames et des Modes in Paris in 1913, is a stunning example of Art Deco and Belle Epoque fashion. The woman's robe apres-midi, or afternoon gown, is made of velours noir, or black velvet, and satin vert, or green satin. The dress is adorned with intricate trim, including a V-neckline with a delicate lace overlay, and a full skirt with a voluminous, layered hem. The dress is also featured with a matching green charmeuse tunic, or tunique, and a mousseline blanche, or white mousseline, tunic. The woman's outfit is further enhanced by a fur cape, or manteau, made of skunk fur, adding a touch of luxury and glamour. The overall look is reminiscent of the orientalism and ballet Russes influences that were popular during this time period. This elegant and chic image is a testament to the fashion trends of Paris during the early 1900s, and is a beautiful example of the intricate detail and artistry that went into creating fashion plates during this era. The handcoloured pochoir etching adds an additional layer of artistry to the already stunning design.
