EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing caricature, titled "Le Bon Genre" and published in Paris in 1817 by Pierre de la Mesangere, offers a humorous and satirical glimpse into English fashion trends during the early 19th century. The print captures the essence of the Regency and Napoleonic eras, poking fun at the ill-fitting and awkwardly shaped clothing donned by both men and women. The men in the print are depicted wearing oversized, high-waisted coats, with one figure holding a cane and another wearing a ribbon and lace around his neck. Their hats are perched precariously atop their heads, some with exaggerated brims, while their sashes are tied in knots that seem far too complicated for the wearer. The women, on the other hand, are shown in voluminous, ill-fitting dresses that are pulled in at the waist with large sashes. Their hats are adorned with elaborate lace and ribbon trimmings, while their gloves extend up to their elbows. Some women are even shown wearing multiple layers of petticoats, making their skirts appear even fuller. This handcoloured engraving was likely produced as a form of satirical entertainment, allowing viewers to laugh at the absurdities of fashion during this time period. The print reflects the changing trends of the era, as the Empire style, characterized by its emphasis on the waistline, began to give way to the more voluminous styles of the Regency and Napoleonic eras. Overall, this caricature provides a fascinating glimpse into the fashionable lifestyle of the early 19th century, offering a humorous and entertaining perspective on a time long past.
