EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print showcases the First President of the French Court of Cassation in 1825, during the Bourbon Restoration period. The distinguished figure is depicted wearing ceremonial robes made of luxurious ermine-lined velvet, symbolizing his high status and authority within the court. Established in 1790 during the tumultuous times of the French Revolution, the Court of Cassation played a crucial role in upholding justice and maintaining order in France. This lithograph offers a glimpse into the prestigious world of French law courts during this era. The handcoloured lithograph was created by Lorenzo Bianchi and Domenico Cuciniello after Hippolyte Lecomte's original artwork. It forms part of Lecomte's comprehensive collection titled "Costumi civili e militari della monarchia francese dal 1200 al 1820" (Civilian and military costumes of the French monarchy from 1200 to 1820), which was published in Naples in 1825. The attention to detail and vibrant colors bring this historical moment to life, capturing both fashion trends and cultural significance prevalent at that time. The image portrays not only an influential statesman but also reflects on early nineteenth-century attire with its unique clothing style. This remarkable lithograph serves as a testament to both artistic skill and historical documentation, offering viewers a fascinating glimpse into an important chapter in French history – where law meets fashion amidst political change.
