EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph, titled "Coiffure la Fregate la Junon," showcases a woman adorned with an extraordinary hairstyle inspired by the famous French naval gunship, the Junon, from 1778. The intricate coiffure, created by the skilled hand of lithographer de Laubadere for Octave Uzanne's "Stylish Hairstyles or Eccentric Finery from the Era of King Louis XVI," features a model ship riding on waves made of ringlets and curls. The elaborate design incorporates every detail of the Junon, from its sails and mast to its rigging and cannons. Pearls and other decorative elements add an extra touch of elegance to the already impressive hairstyle. The Junon, a symbol of French naval power during the late 18th century, served as the inspiration for this extraordinary coiffure, reflecting the fashionable obsession with maritime themes during the time. This exquisite print, published in Paris by Rouveyre in 1895, offers a glimpse into the opulence and creativity of the era, showcasing the beauty and intricacy of both the hairstyle and the naval vessel it was modeled after.
