EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite copperplate etching captures the essence of 18th century French elegance, as depicted in the image of a young, leisurely woman adorned in the height of Marie Antoinette-era fashion. The woman, with a tender expression, is shown in a public promenade, donning a Minerva hat and a voluminous taffeta dress. The Minerva hat, a popular millinery accessory of the time, boasts a large, flat brim and intricate ribbon detailing, while the woman's ringlets cascade down her shoulders, adding to the overall allure of the ensemble. The etching is an exquisite reproduction of an original illustration by Francois Louis Joseph Watteau, taken from the esteemed "Gallerie des Modes et Costumes Francais," published in Paris between 1778 and 1787. The meticulous detail and masterful shading in the etching by Auguste Etienne Guillaumot bring the image to life, transporting us back to an era of opulence and refinement. The woman's graceful demeanor and the intricate details of her attire serve as a testament to the enduring allure of 18th century French fashion, and the enduring appeal of the Minerva hat as a symbol of elegance and sophistication.
