EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored lithograph, titled "Dandy in Black Suit, Breeches, and Stockings," is an exquisite illustration by Francois-Claudius Compte-Calix from the Paris Fashions under the Directory, published in Paris in 1865. The image showcases a dandy, elegantly dressed in a black suit, breeches, and stockings, standing in a serene setting. He holds a sprig of flowers in one hand and a pocket telescope in the other, adding to his air of sophistication and refinement. The Directory period (1795-1799) in French history was marked by political instability and economic hardships, yet the Parisians continued to maintain their love for fashion. This illustration is a testament to the enduring elegance and style of the era. The dandy's impeccable attire, accessorized with a flower and a telescope, reflects the extravagance and flair that defined the Parisian fashion scene during this time. Compte-Calix's illustration is a stunning example of the intricate detail and vibrant colors that characterized handcolored lithographs of the 18th century. The artist's skillful use of color and shading brings the dandy to life, making this print a true treasure for anyone interested in fashion history or the art of the 18th century.
