EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured pochoir (stencil) etching captures the elegance and sophistication of a woman's outfit from the Belle Époque era, as depicted in an illustration by Victor Lhuer from Tommaso Antongini's Journal des Dames et des Modes, published in Paris in 1913. The woman is shown wearing a robe de linon, or linen dress, with a double tunic of embroidered tulle. The dress features a floral border and is paired with a little casaque jacket, lined with satin, adding an extra layer of refinement to the ensemble. The intricate embroidery and lace trim on the tunic and jacket showcase the attention to detail and craftsmanship of the time. The woman's column skirt and midi length hemline are typical of the fashionable afternoon outfits of the period. The orientalist influences of the Art Deco movement are evident in the floral motifs and rich colors of the illustration. This image is reminiscent of the costumes designed for the Ballets Russes, which were known for their innovative and avant-garde productions. The Parisians of the time would have considered this outfit to be the height of chic and sophistication. The pochoir etching process, which involves applying color through a stencil, adds to the artisanal quality of the print and enhances the overall beauty of the illustration.
