EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph captures the essence of elegance and fashion at the Longchamps Race Course in 1868. The shelter, a haven amidst the excitement of horse racing, provides a picturesque backdrop for two women adorned in exquisite attire. The woman on the left stands tall, wearing a tunic over her white crinoline. Her outfit exudes sophistication and grace as she gazes into the distance with an air of confidence. On her right, we see another woman dressed in a stunning pink crinoline dress with an elegant train flowing behind her. She radiates beauty and charm as she delicately holds onto her ribbons. As spectators gather around them, eagerly anticipating the races to come, these women stand out as paragons of style. Their fashionable ensembles reflect the trends of 19th-century Parisian society during this time period. The Hippodrome de Longchamp racetrack itself opened its doors just over a decade prior to this scene's depiction in 1857. It quickly became renowned for its thrilling horse races and attracted people from all walks of life. Through this artwork by R. V. , after an illustration by Francois Courboin from Octave Uzanne's "Fashion in Paris" we are transported back to a time when fashion was not only about clothing but also about making statements and leaving lasting impressions. This print serves as both a historical record and an artistic representation of French culture during the late 19th century.
