"English Gallery of Famous Women: A Glimpse into the Lives and Styles of Remarkable Ladies" Step back in time and immerse yourself in the captivating world of historical women with the English Gallery of Famous Women. From ballet dancers to sopranos, queens to mistresses, each portrait tells a unique story through their exquisite attire. Marie Anne Cuppi, the renowned ballet dancer from 1710-1770, enchants us with her elegant ensemble. She dons a small cap, ruff collar, laced bodice dress adorned with lace sleeves tied delicately with ribbons. Her apron and calf-length skirt gracefully flow as she dances on high-heel shoes. Sophie Arnould captivates our attention as she embodies her role in the opera Pyramus and Thisbe from 1771. Dressed in Act V's famous costume, Sophie wears a mantua dress embellished with hoop petticoats or panniers decorated intricately with frills, pearls, and ribbons. Louise Angelique Motier de la Fayette takes us back to the courtly days of France during Louis XIII's reign (1618-1665). As maid of honour to Queen Anne of Austria, Louise showcases her regal style wearing ringlets cascading down her shoulders along with a string of pearls. Her dress features an exquisite lace collar and cuffs paired elegantly with slashed sleeves and a laced bodice. Madame de Sevigne aka Marie de Rabutin-Chantal (1626-1696), known for her remarkable letters to her daughter Madame de Grignan is portrayed wearing a skull cap adorned beautifully by bows while sporting hair styled in charming ringlets. La Belle Feronniere mesmerizes us as King Francis I's mistress. Whether married to a furrier or lawyer named Feron remains uncertain; however, what catches our eye is La Belle Feronniere's simple chaperon headdress with a brim.
