EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases a seamstress of the 17th century, during the reign of King Louis XIII, skillfully wearing a Bavolet headdress. The Bavolet, also known as a curtain bonnet, was a popular fashion accessory of the time, characterized by its lace frill at the back. The seamstress is dressed in a vibrant red gown, accentuated by a corset, flat lace collar, and cuffs. Her lace apron adds a touch of elegance to her work attire. The intricately designed Bavolet headdress, with its delicate lace veil, frames the seamstress's face, enhancing her features. The handcoloured copperplate engraving, created by Georges Jacques Gatine after an illustration by Louis Marie Lante, captures the essence of this iconic fashion piece. The Galerie Francaise de Femmes Celebres publication in Paris, 1827, preserves this historical image for future generations to appreciate the beauty and craftsmanship of the 17th century.
