EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century engraving showcases a court officer of King Francis I during the 16th century. The detailed print, created by artist Edmond Lechevallier-Chevignard, offers a glimpse into the fashion and style of the era. The court officer is depicted wearing an exquisite embroidered silk jacket over a slashed doublet, paired with hose and a plumed hat. His attire signifies his status as an officer of the royal household, complete with a sword and oliphant—an ivory horn used for communication. The inspiration for this artwork comes from a tapestry in the collection of painter Gustave Brion, adding historical significance to its portrayal. Lechevallier-Chevignard's hand-colored lithograph beautifully captures every intricate detail, bringing to life the elegance and grandeur of French nobility during this period. This print is part of Georges Duplessiss' "Costumes historiques des XVIe, XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles" (Historical costumes of the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries), published in Paris in 1867. Lechevallier-Chevignard was not only an accomplished artist but also renowned as a book illustrator and interior designer. With its rich cultural heritage and artistic mastery on display, this engraving serves as both an educational resource for history enthusiasts and an aesthetic delight for art lovers alike.
