EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning fashion plate, created by renowned English publisher and printmaker Rudolph Ackermann in 1814, showcases an elegant walking dress of the Regency era. The dress, featuring an empire line and full skirt, is adorned with a bold checkered pattern in shades of brown and beige. The empire gown, popular during the early 19th century, is characterized by its high waistline and loose-fitting bodice, allowing for a more natural posture and freedom of movement. The fashionable woman depicted in this plate wears her hair styled in the fashionable "Waterfall" style, with loose curls cascading down her back. She dons a matching checked hat, accessorized with a delicate shawl draped over her shoulders. The long-sleeved gown is completed with a simple, elegant hat and a pair of fashionable shoes. This hand-colored engraving on paper, part of the extensive collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), offers a glimpse into the fashion trends of the time and the artistic sensibilities of the Regency era. The intricate detail and vibrant colors of the print reflect the high standards of craftsmanship and aesthetic values of the period. The image invites us to explore the rich history of fashion and art in Britain during the early 1800s and to appreciate the elegance and sophistication of the Regency era.
