EDITORS COMMENTS
The Duchess Blush or York Flame, pub. 1791 (hand coloured engraving) captures the elegance and charm of Frederica Charlotte Ulrica Catherina, Duchess of York and Albany. This exquisite print by Isaac Cruikshank showcases the fashionable footwear of the time with a satirical twist. In this whimsical cartoon-like illustration, we see a flat-soled pump shoe adorned with ribbons and jewels. The pointed toe adds a touch of sophistication to this low-heeled shoe, reflecting the fashion trends prevalent during that era. The artist's keen eye for detail is evident in every stroke, bringing to life not only the intricate design but also capturing the essence of social satire. The Duchess herself is depicted wearing this stylish shoe, adding an element of humor to the artwork. This hand-coloured engraving from The Stapleton Collection offers us a glimpse into both historical fashion and artistic expression. It serves as a reminder that even in centuries past, style was not without its playful side. As we admire this timeless piece from Bridgeman Images' Private Collection, let us appreciate how art can transcend time and provide us with insights into different eras while still evoking joy and fascination.
