EDITORS COMMENTS
This beautiful hand-colored pochoir (stencil) etching captures a charming interior scene featuring a mother and her children, with the eldest girl gracefully dressed in a blue floral crepe du chine gown. The illustration, taken from Tommaso Antongini's Journal des Dames et des Modes, published in Paris in 1912, is an exquisite example of Art Deco and Belle Époque fashion. The girl's dress, a robe de petite fille en crepe du chine bleu fleuri, is a stunning piece of clothing that embodies the elegance and sophistication of the era. The crepe du chine fabric, a smooth and flowing material made from fine cotton, is adorned with intricate blue floral patterns, adding a touch of natural beauty and grace to the design. The dress also features volant (wing-like) frills and nainsouk (a type of cotton) trims, adding a delicate and feminine touch. The mother and children are dressed in various other fashionable garments of the time, including a woman in a striped robe de pekine (a type of Chinese robe) and children in pekin silk and satin outfits. The overall scene exudes a sense of chic Parisian style and the influence of Orientalism and the Ballets Russes, which were popular during this period. The hand-colored pochoir etching process involved applying colored pigments through a stencil to create intricate and detailed designs. This technique was commonly used in fashion plates and magazines during the late 19th and early 20th centuries to showcase the latest trends and styles. This particular plate is a beautiful and timeless representation of the fashion and art of the era, and a testament to the enduring appeal of classic fashion and design.
