EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the essence of elegance and refinement during the Belle Époque and Art Deco eras. The woman in the photograph is deeply engrossed in reading a letter, her expressive face revealing a mix of emotions. She wears a stunning sea-green silk velvet dress, the rich hue of the fabric adding depth and allure to her figure. The dress is accessorized with a toque hat of the same velvet, edged with ermine, and an ermine shawl and muff, adding a touch of luxury and opulence to her summer outfit. The woman's outfit is reminiscent of the fashion plates featured in Tommaso Antongini's Journal des Dames et des Modes, a popular French fashion magazine of the time. The illustration, created by the renowned artist Roger Broders, showcases the chic Parisian style of the early 20th century. The floral linen blouse peeking out from under the velvet dress, the foulard tied around her neck, and the skirt with a linen base and a detachable velvet overlay all reflect the latest trends in fashion. The handcoloured pochoir (stencil) etching technique used to create this print adds a layer of artistry and intricacy to the image, making it a true work of art. The Orientalist influences and Ballets Russes costumes popular during this period are also evident in the design of the toque and the overall aesthetic of the image. This photograph is a beautiful representation of the sophistication and elegance of the time, transporting us back to a bygone era of glamour and style.
