EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-painted old-blue veil print captures the essence of early 20th century elegance and orientalism. The woman in the image is dressed in a robe de voile bleu ancien, or an old-blue hand-painted satin dress with a matching hand-embroidered blouse. The dress is adorned with intricate floral patterns, giving it an ethereal and dreamlike quality. The woman's arm is casually resting on the window sill, her hand delicately holding on to the folds of her veil as she gazes out at the blooming cherry blossoms. The print is a pochoir (stencil) etching after an illustration by Louis Bureau from Tommaso Antongini's Journal des Dames et des Modes, published in Paris in 1913. The Art Deco and Belle Epoque influences are evident in the fluid lines and rich colors of the print. The woman's fashionable attire, with its draped skirt and cashmere and silk fabrics, was likely inspired by the ballets Russes and the chic Parisian society of the time. The use of hand-painting and stencil techniques adds to the unique and artistic quality of the print. The old-blue veil, with its delicate folds and intricate patterns, is a striking contrast to the vibrant colors of the cherry blossoms outside. The overall effect is one of timeless beauty and grace, transporting us back to a bygone era of elegance and refinement.
