EDITORS COMMENTS
In this handcoloured lithograph from the late 19th century, we are transported back to the Tuileries Gardens in Paris during the Year VIII, specifically in the year 1800. The image, entitled "A Walk in the Tuileries Gardens: A Dandy of the Year VIII," showcases the height of fashionable attire during this period, as depicted by the elegant figure of a dandy strolling through the gardens. Dressed to impress, the dandy is impeccably attired in an incroyable coat, breeches, hose, and slippers. His tricorn hat sits atop his head, adorned with a cockade, adding a touch of sophistication and refinement to his appearance. The woman accompanying him is equally fashionable, her dress displaying the latest trends of the Directory Directory period. This exquisite print is an illustration from Octave Uzanne's influential book "Fashion in Paris," published by William Heinemann in London in 1898. The illustration is based on a drawing by Francois Courboin, providing a detailed and accurate representation of the fashionable society of the time. The Tuileries Gardens, located between the Louvre Museum and the Place de la Concorde, were a popular destination for Parisians and visitors alike during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The gardens offered a respite from the hustle and bustle of city life, and were a place where the fashionable elite could be seen promenading and socializing. This beautiful print provides a glimpse into the world of French high society during a pivotal period in French history. The art patronage of the time, as represented by the dandy and the woman in the image, played a significant role in the development of the arts, particularly in the Salon des Beaux-Arts and the Academie des Beaux-Arts. The esthetics of the 18th century continued to influence fashion and art during the Directory period, making this image a valuable document of French culture and history.
