EDITORS COMMENTS
Mabille de Riez, a captivating French beauty of the 12th century court of Provence, is depicted in this exquisite handcolored copperplate engraving by Leopold Massard. The noblewoman wears an elegant and intricately designed dress, featuring a fitted bodice adorned with delicate floral patterns and a full, voluminous skirt. Her high-necked, long-sleeved garment is accessorized with a fashionable claque, or ear pendants, and a bonnet adorned with a delicate veil. Mabille's expressive face reveals a hint of melancholy, perhaps a broken heart, as she gazes off into the distance. The troubadour tradition was in full swing during this period, and it's not hard to imagine a romantic liaison inspiring such emotion. The noblewomen of the Provence court were known for their refined taste and fashion sense, and Mabille de Riez is no exception. Her attire reflects the latest trends of the time, with a focus on intricate detailing and luxurious fabrics. This engraving is taken from "French Costumes from King Clovis to Our Days," a comprehensive work by Massard, Mifliez, and published in Paris in 1834. The meticulously drawn and handcolored plates offer a glimpse into the fashion and culture of medieval France, making this a valuable historical resource as well as a work of art.
