EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "La Distraite" or "The Distracted Woman," showcases the elegance and opulence of 18th century French fashion as depicted in this intricately detailed copperplate etching by Auguste Etienne Guillaumot. The fashionable woman, dressed in the height of Marie Antoinette-inspired style, stands before a large basin filled with water, her voluminous pouf hairstyle cascading down her back. Her elaborate hairstyle, adorned with ribbons and flowers, is a testament to the extravagance and intricacy of the time. The woman's dress is a stunning example of the era's fashion, featuring a draped skirt that falls in soft folds to the floor, a petticoat that adds fullness and volume, and a low-cut bodice that reveals a hint of décolletage. Her petticoat is adorned with delicate floral patterns and intricate lace, adding an air of refinement to the ensemble. As she prepares to wash her feet, the woman is attended to by a maid, who holds a towel and a pair of slippers. The maid's simple yet elegant uniform, consisting of a white apron and a cap, highlights the stark contrast between the two women's roles in society. This beautiful etching, originally published in Pierre Thomas Le Clerc's "Gallerie des Modes et Costumes Francais" in 1778-1787, offers a glimpse into the world of 18th century French fashion and the intricate rituals of daily life for the wealthy and privileged. The attention to detail in the clothing, hairstyles, and accessories is truly remarkable, making this a must-have for any history or fashion enthusiast.
