EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured lithograph, titled "Woman in the Fashion of 1788," showcases the elegant and refined style of the aristocratic women during the reign of Marie Antoinette at the French Court of Versailles. The subject of the print is dressed in the latest fashion trends of the time, including a jacket in the striking color of Naples blue and a petticoat in the complementary hue of Naples yellow. The large fichu jabot, a popular accessory for women during this period, adds an air of sophistication to her ensemble. The woman wears a straw hat adorned with a large violet ribbon, which is tied to the front of her bodice, adding a touch of playfulness to her outfit. The intricate details of her clothing, from the delicate lace trim on her jacket to the elegant draping of her petticoat, are beautifully captured in this meticulously handcoloured print. This image is taken from "Fashions and Customs of Marie Antoinette and her Times," a journal published by the Comte de Reiset in Paris in 1885. The journal was compiled by Madame Eloffe, a renowned dressmaker and linen-merchant to the Queen and ladies of the court, providing an insider's perspective on the latest fashion trends and customs of the French aristocracy during this opulent era. The print offers a captivating glimpse into the world of 18th-century French court life, where elegance, refinement, and luxury reigned supreme. The vibrant colors, intricate details, and historical significance of this print make it a must-have for any collection focused on the fashion and history of the late 18th century.
