EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "A Furriers Shop (from the Encyclopaedia)" takes us back to pre-revolutionary France in the 19th century. The image showcases a bustling fur boutique located in Paris, where luxurious furs were meticulously crafted and displayed. The scene depicts an era of opulence and extravagance, symbolizing the French ancien régime's grandeur. The furriers' shop is adorned with exquisite pelts of various animals, showcasing the wealth and status associated with owning such lavish garments during that time. This print was originally created as an illustration for Paul Lacroix's book, "The XVIIIth Century" published by Bickers and Son around 1880. It offers a glimpse into French culture during this period, highlighting their appreciation for fashion and luxury goods. As we gaze at this artwork from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are transported to a time when furs were not only fashionable but also served as a social statement. This engraving serves as a testament to the craftsmanship of French artisans who skillfully transformed animal hides into works of art. Let this enchanting image remind us of the rich history behind our modern-day fashion industry while appreciating its artistic value.
