EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured lithograph captures the elegant and romantic hairstyle known as "Coiffure au Bandon d'Amour" or "Hairstyle with Love Band," popular during the 1770s in the court of King Louis XVI. The woman in the print is depicted with a cascade of ringlets framing her face, interspersed with delicate plumes and feathers. The hairstyle is held in place by a thin band adorned with intricate floral designs and the words "Bandon d'Amour," symbolizing love and affection. The intricacy and artistry of this hairstyle were highly valued during the Rococo period, reflecting the ornate and extravagant tastes of the time. The use of ringlets and plumes was a common feature in women's hairstyles, adding volume and texture to the elaborate coiffures. The love band, a symbol of commitment and devotion, was a popular accessory that added a romantic touch to the hairstyle. This beautiful print, created by the skilled hand of French lithographer de Laubadere, is part of Octave Uzanne's collection "Stylish Hairstyles or Eccentric Finery from the Era of King Louis XVI." The collection, published in Paris in 1895 by Rouveyre, showcases a range of elaborate and intricate hairstyles that were popular during the Rococo period. The print is a testament to the artistry and creativity of the time, and continues to captivate viewers with its timeless beauty and elegance.
