EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored lithograph depicts an Oval Chinoiserie Candlestick, a stunning example of the Eastern-inspired decorative arts that graced the royal courts of 18th century Europe. The image is taken from "Fashions and Customs of Marie Antoinette and her Times," a comprehensive record of the fashion, culture, and social life at the French court during the reign of Marie Antoinette, written by Comte de Reiset and published in Paris in 1885. The Oval Chinoiserie Candlestick is a beautiful fusion of Western and Eastern design, with its elegant oval shape and intricate chinoiserie decoration. Chinoiserie, a popular decorative style during the 18th century, drew inspiration from Chinese art and culture, and was often used to adorn the interiors of grand European homes and palaces. The candlestick, with its delicate floral motifs, dragons, and exotic birds, is a testament to the fascination that European artists and collectors had with the mysterious and exotic Orient. The handcolored lithograph, produced by the renowned French publishing house Mary Evans, captures the intricacy and beauty of the candlestick in vivid detail, making it a valuable historical record of the decorative arts of the time. The presence of the candlestick in "Fashions and Customs of Marie Antoinette and her Times" underscores the importance of chinoiserie in the royal court of Versailles and the wider European society during the 18th century. The journal, compiled by Madame Eloffe, the dressmaker and linen-merchant to the Queen and ladies of the court, provides a unique insight into the fashion, customs, and social life of the period, making it an essential resource for scholars and enthusiasts of 18th century history.
