EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithography print from the late 19th century showcases the letter R, depicting men's fashion under the reign of Louis XIV. Created by an anonymous French School artist, this piece is part of a series published by the Auguste Fretin shoe factory in Paris around 1880. The image transports us back to the opulent era of Louis XIV, known as the Sun King, who reigned over France during its golden age. The man depicted exudes elegance and sophistication, wearing a striking ensemble that epitomizes 17th-century fashion. His attire includes a meticulously tailored coat with intricate embroidery and lace details, complemented by breeches and stockings. A fashionable walking stick or cane adds an air of authority to his appearance. The vibrant colors used in this chromolithograph bring life to every element of the composition. From rich hues adorning his clothing to subtle tones highlighting background details, each color choice enhances our understanding of this historical period's style and grandeur. This artwork not only serves as an exquisite example of lithographic technique but also acts as an advertisement for Auguste Fretin's shoe factory. It was part of a larger alphabet primer showcasing various aspects of costume history through advertising chromolithographs. As we admire this stunning portrayal, we are reminded once again that art has always been intertwined with commerce throughout history – even in unexpected forms like alphabet primers promoting shoemakers' businesses.
