EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases the elegant and fashionable Costume of Madame Raquet, Merveilleuse, in the martyr style. Dressed in the height of Directory era fashion, Madame Raquet dons a round English hat made of beaver skin, adorned with a cavalier feather and a deep red ribbon. The spencer she wears adds an air of sophistication over her low-cut dress, revealing a chemise that is intricately cut out over the bust and tied at the neck like a cravat. The handcolored etching, created by Auguste Etienne Guillaumot Jr. in 1875, is a stunning representation of the fashion trends during the late 1790s. The designs for this etching were inspired by the original prints of the era, expertly captured by Eugene Lacoste and Draner. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring this fashionable moment in history to life, providing a glimpse into the opulence and elegance of the Directory period.
