EDITORS COMMENTS
In this exquisite handcoloured lithograph, a young lady of quality, or demoiselle, is depicted at a masked ball in 16th century France. The demoiselle is elegantly dressed in the latest fashion, with a voluminous gown adorned with intricate lace and embroidery. She accessorizes her outfit with a mask in her right hand, a cantenance, or muff, in her left, and a mirror and fan hanging from her belt. The mask, a necessary accessory for masked balls, adds an element of mystery and intrigue to the occasion. The demoiselle's expression suggests a playful and mischievous demeanor, as she gazes off into the distance, perhaps in search of a dance partner or admirer. The cantenance, a fashionable accessory for women during this time, served both as a fashion statement and as a practical tool to keep the hands warm. The mirror and fan were also essential items for ladies of the court, allowing them to check their appearance and maintain their composure in the heat of the ballroom. This beautiful image is a handcoloured lithograph after a portrait in Roger de Gaignieres gallery portfolio IX 120, from Le Bibliophile Jacob aka Paul Lacroix's Costumes Historiques de la France. The attention to detail in the intricate lacework, the rich colours, and the elegant poses of the figures make this a truly captivating piece of historical art. The demoiselle's graceful demeanor and the allure of the masked ball transport us back to a time of opulence and grandeur, making this image a must-have for any collection of historical art or costume.
