EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph from 1825 showcases a French dandy or Incroyable in his summer outfit, exuding elegance and style. The young man is dressed impeccably, wearing a blue redingote with a high collar, complemented by a white cravat and a short striped gilet. His high-waisted breeches are tied at the ankle, adding an extra touch of sophistication to his ensemble. In one hand, he holds a top hat, symbolizing his refined taste and social status. In the other hand, he confidently grasps a cudgel, perhaps hinting at both fashion and self-defense during this period. The lithograph captures the essence of 18th-century fashion with its attention to detail and intricate design. Handcolored by Lorenzo Bianchi and Domenico Cuciniello after Hippolyte Lecomte's original work, it showcases the artistry involved in creating such fashionable prints. This image transports us back to an era when clothing was not just functional but also served as an expression of personal style and societal standing. It offers us a glimpse into the world of French fashion during this time period. With its vibrant colors and meticulous craftsmanship, this lithograph is not only visually stunning but also serves as an important historical document that reflects the sartorial choices of men in early 19th-century France.
