EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the vibrant and exquisite costumes of Strasbourg in the 17th century. The coloured engraving, created by the German School in the 19th century, offers a glimpse into the fashion trends and cultural heritage of this historic French city. The image depicts both men and women dressed in elaborate attire that reflects their social status and personal style. The attention to detail is remarkable, from the intricate patterns on their garments to the ornate hats adorning their heads. Each costume tells a story of its own, representing not only fashion but also national identity. Strasbourg's unique location in Alsace, between France and Germany, has influenced its distinctive blend of styles showcased in these costumes. This fusion of French elegance with Germanic influences creates an enchanting visual tapestry that speaks to both local traditions and European fashion trends. The finely crafted engraving was originally published as an illustration for "Zur Geschichte der Kostume" (Braun & Schneider, c 1895), adding historical context to this artistic representation. Preserved within a private collection, this print allows us to appreciate how clothing can be a powerful expression of culture throughout history. With its rich colors and meticulous craftsmanship, this print transports us back in time while celebrating the beauty and diversity found within Strasbourg's sartorial heritage.
