EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph, created by de Laubadere in 1895, showcases a woman adorned with an extraordinary hairstyle inspired by the Belle Poule, a renowned naval frigate from the late 18th century. The Belle Poule, under the command of Captain de Grasse, distinguished itself in combat during the American Revolutionary War in 1778, securing a significant victory for the French fleet. The woman in the image wears her hair in the 'Coiffure à la Belle Poule,' an elaborate and eccentric hairstyle of the time, named after the victorious frigate. Her hair is meticulously styled into ringlets and curls, cascading down her back in soft waves. The centerpiece of her hairstyle is a miniature model ship, complete with mast, rigging, and sails, perched atop her head. The intricate detailing of the ship, from its ornate design to the delicate sails, is a testament to the artistry of the time. This image, taken from Octave Uzanne's 'Stylish Hairstyles or Eccentric Finery from the Era of King Louis XVI,' offers a glimpse into the fashionable yet extravagant world of the French aristocracy during the late 18th century. The Belle Poule hairstyle, with its nautical theme, was a symbol of wealth, power, and prestige, reflecting the nation's pride in its naval victories and the fashionable obsession with maritime motifs.
