EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures the essence of a French fop or dandy in his morning riding outfit during the late 18th century. The image showcases an elegant gentleman, exuding style and sophistication, as he prepares for a leisurely horse ride. The dandy is adorned in a fashionable ensemble that epitomizes the height of 18th-century fashion. He wears a hat embellished with a cockade, symbolizing his allegiance to the French revolutionaries of 1789. His redingote coat features a large collar, adding an air of grandeur to his appearance. A meticulously tied cravat adorns his neck while he sports a striped waistcoat underneath. Completing his attire are buff breeches and boots with high cuffs. The handcoloured lithograph beautifully brings out the intricate details of this historical costume design by Lorenzo Bianchi and Domenico Cuciniello after Hippolyte Lecomte's original work. This print was part of Lecomte's comprehensive collection titled "Costumi civili e militari della monarchia francese dal 1200 al 1820" which showcased civilian and military costumes from various periods in French history. This artwork provides us with valuable insight into not only the fashion trends but also the social status and cultural norms prevalent during this era. It serves as both an aesthetic delight for art enthusiasts and historians alike, offering glimpses into France's rich sartorial heritage during one of its most transformative periods – from monarchy to revolution.
