EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored engraving, titled "Costume de l'Époque de Louis XVI: Une Dame à la Robe de Velours Rouge Trimée de Fourrure," showcases the elegant and extravagant fashion of the late 18th century, specifically during the reign of Marie Antoinette. The woman depicted in the image wears a floral bonnet adorned with ribbons and feathers, a pink fur-trimmed coat over long white skirts, and carries a cane. Her outfit is further accessorized with a fichu, a decorative veil, and a redingote, or long jacket, made of velvet and trimmed with silk. The woman's attire reflects the opulence and elegance of the French court during this period. Marie Antoinette, known for her love of fashion and extravagance, set the trend for the fashionable elite of her time. This image, created by Ap. Carrache after an illustration by Francois-Claudius Compte-Calix, captures the beauty and sophistication of the era. The intricate details of the woman's outfit, from the delicate floral design on her bonnet to the rich textures of her fur-trimmed coat and velvet redingote, are brought to life through the meticulous handcoloring. The plate, published in Paris in 1869, offers a glimpse into the fashionable world of Marie Antoinette and the French aristocracy. The woman's graceful posture and the elegant curves of her silhouette convey a sense of refinement and poise, making this image a timeless representation of the beauty and extravagance of the late 18th century.
