EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 17th-century engraving, titled "Homme en Robe de Chambre" by Nicolas Bonnart, offers a captivating glimpse into the world of French fashion during the Baroque era. The image, part of the "Recueil des modes de la cour de France" series, depicts a well-dressed man reclining indoors, surrounded by luxurious soft furnishings and a grand interior. The man wears a robe de chambre, a dressing gown or nightgown, which was a popular choice for comfortable attire within the privacy of one's home. His robe is adorned with intricate stripes, adding a touch of elegance and sophistication to the casual garment. The man completes his outfit with a pair of high, laced-up carriage boots, which were a common footwear choice during this period. Accessories add an extra layer of opulence to the ensemble. He dons a fur hat, which not only kept him warm but also added a regal touch to his appearance. A hand-coloured engraving on paper, this image showcases the attention to detail and masterful technique of Nicolas Bonnart. The man's posture, the rich colours of his robe, and the intricate patterns of the soft furnishings all come together to create a visually stunning and historically significant work of art. This image, now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, offers a unique window into the world of 17th-century French fashion and the opulence of the Baroque era. It invites us to explore the intricacies of clothing and textiles, as well as the cultural and historical contexts that shaped the fashion trends of the time.
