EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph, titled "Bonnet aux Clochettes" or "Bell-adorned Bonnet," showcases a woman from the era of King Louis XVI, adorned in an extravagant and stylish hairstyle. The image, created by the skilled hand of de Laubadere for Octave Uzanne's publication "Coiffures de Style, la Parure Excentrique" or "Stylish Hairstyles, Eccentric Finery," published in Paris in 1895, offers a glimpse into the fashionable and elaborate coiffures of the late 18th century. The woman in the print wears an ornate bonnet, bedecked with bells and ribbons, which adds a playful and whimsical touch to her elegant attire. Her curls cascade down her shoulders, framing her face and accentuating the intricate design of her bonnet. The bell-shaped adornments on the bonnet, known as "clochettes," were a popular trend during this time, symbolizing wealth and status. The handcoloured lithograph technique adds a vibrant and rich quality to the image, bringing the woman's extravagant hairstyle and the intricate details of her bonnet to life. The use of bold colours and fine lines highlights the artistry and craftsmanship of de Laubadere's work. This print is a testament to the opulence and creativity of the fashion world during the reign of King Louis XVI. It offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the intricate hairstyles and finery that were in vogue during this period. The Bell-adorned Bonnet remains a captivating and timeless symbol of the elegance and extravagance of the late 18th century.
