EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 18th century showcases the exquisite habit of the Queen of Poland and Electoress of Saxony in 1700. The print, part of a private collection, offers a glimpse into the fashion trends and regal attire of that era. The queen's ensemble is nothing short of opulent, with its lavish fur trimmings and intricate feather accents. Her robes cascade elegantly down her figure, exuding an air of grace and authority befitting a ruler. The attention to detail is remarkable, as every fold and seam in her clothing is meticulously captured by the artist. Her headdress adds another layer of grandeur to her appearance. Adorned with ornate designs and jewels, it serves as a symbol of her status and power. This queen embodies both poise and confidence through her choice in fashion. The engraving itself comes from "Recueil des Habillements de Differentes Nations" a publication that showcased various national costumes throughout history. It was created by English School artists who drew inspiration from renowned painters such as Holbein, Vandyke, Hollar, among others. As we admire this stunning portrayal, we are transported back in time to witness European royalty at its finest. This image not only captures the essence of Polish-Saxon fashion but also provides us with insight into the cultural significance attached to clothing during this period.
