EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured copperplate engraving captures the essence of fashion in 1801, showcasing a fashionable woman adorned in a magnificent ball gown and tiara. The French School's attention to detail is evident as they depict every intricate element of her attire. The woman exudes elegance and sophistication, wearing a low-cut dress embellished with vibrant green ruffles that cascade down her silhouette. In her hands, she delicately holds both a fan and a monocle or lorgnette on a chain, adding an air of mystery to her persona. This costume de bal illustration was featured in Pierre de la Mesangeres Journal des Modes et Dames, Paris in 1801. Volume 4 boasted contributions from esteemed artists such as Carle Vernet, Bosio, Dutailly, and Philibert Louis Debucourt. The image transports us back to the era of the Directoire and the French Revolution when fashion became an expression of individuality amidst political turmoil. It serves as a testament to the opulence enjoyed by some during this time period. As we admire this print by Bridgeman Images from Fine Art Finder, we are reminded of the timeless allure that fashion possesses throughout history. This fashionable woman's ensemble showcases not only her status but also represents an era where style was used as both personal expression and societal statement.
