EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Woman dancing at a ball, Paris, 1803" transports us back to the elegant world of early 19th-century France. The image showcases a graceful woman in the midst of a lively dance at a grand ball. Her braided hairdo and exquisitely adorned ballgown, embellished with delicate rosettes, epitomize the height of fashion during this era. The handcoloured copperplate engraving was created by Pierre-Charles Baquoy for Pierre de la Mesangeres' Journal des Dames et des Modes, an esteemed magazine dedicated to women's fashion. Illustrated by prominent artists such as Carle Vernet and Jean-Francois Bosio and engraved by Baquoy himself, this print captures the essence of French elegance. The woman in the image embodies sophistication and femininity as she glides across the dance floor. Her attire reflects not only her personal style but also serves as a testament to the prevailing fashions of that time. This enchanting depiction offers us insight into both historical costume design and societal norms surrounding clothing choices. As we gaze upon this exquisite piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported to an era where elaborate balls were social highlights filled with music, laughter, and romance. It is through images like these that we can appreciate how fashion has evolved over time while still retaining its timeless allure.
