The Coquettish Widow, 1724
EDITORS COMMENTS
by François Bernard Lepicie is a captivating print that transports us back to the elegance of 18th-century France. This enchanting artwork, created through etching and engraving techniques, showcases the mastery of Lepicie in capturing the essence of femininity and flirtation. In this scene, we witness a widow emerging from her mourning dress with an air of coquettishness. She stands before a beautifully adorned dressing table, surrounded by exquisite furniture and jewelry. The woman's face reflects both vulnerability and freedom as she contemplates her appearance in the mirror. Lepicie skillfully portrays the concept of coquetry through subtle details such as the choker necklace adorning her neck and the pearl necklace cascading down her décolletage. These symbols speak to society's expectations for women during that time period – to be alluring yet demure. The miniature portrait on display hints at a past love or perhaps even marriage, adding depth to our understanding of this complex character. Through his meticulous attention to detail, Lepicie invites us into this intimate moment where beauty meets self-reflection. As we gaze upon "The Coquettish Widow" we are transported not only to another era but also into contemplation about body image ideals throughout history. This remarkable piece serves as a testament to Lepicie's talent as an artist and offers us a glimpse into the lives of women in 18th-century France
