EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored fashion plate illustration, titled "Laundry Woman of Fine Linen at Rouen," showcases the elegant and refined fashion of women from the Caux and Normandy regions during the late 19th century. The woman in the illustration wears a tall bavolet bonnet, adorned with intricate Alsatian lace, which was a distinctive feature of the traditional attire of the women from this region. The bavolet hat, with its tall, conical shape and chignon hairstyle, was a symbol of the women's pride and elegance. The laundry woman is depicted in the process of washing linen, which was a common occupation for women during this time. She is dressed in a simple yet elegant linen smock, which is gathered at the waist and sleeves, and a long apron, which protects her clothes from the soapy water. Her hair is styled in a chignon, which is held in place by a ribbon, and she wears a necklace made of pearls and a cross. The illustration is taken from Louis-Marie Lante's "Costumes des femmes du Pays de Caux," published in 1827/1885. Lante was a renowned French engraver and illustrator, who specialized in creating detailed and accurate depictions of traditional costumes from various regions of France. This illustration is a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of the women of Caux and Normandy, and their distinctive fashion that continues to inspire and captivate us even today.
