EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured lithograph captures the elegant fashion sense of the French Directory period, as depicted in Francois-Claudius Compte-Calix's illustration for the publication "Les Modes Parisiennes sous le Directoire" in 1871. The woman in the image wears a stunning white dress with a green trim, adorned with intricate lace detailing. The dress is complemented by a pink apron and a pink and lace capote, adding a pop of color to the monochromatic ensemble. The woman's outfit is accessorized with a black velvet waistcoat, a red waistcoat, a blue fur sash, and a black bracquet. She completes her look with a black hat adorned with flowers, a red waistcoat, and a black and white striped capote. The woman's corsage is a beautiful arrangement of pink and white flowers, adding a touch of femininity to the outfit. This illustration showcases the fashion trends of the Napoleonic era, during the French Revolution, when the Directory ruled France. The Directory period was known for its emphasis on simplicity and practicality in fashion, while still maintaining an air of elegance and refinement. The woman in this image embodies this balance, with her elegant white dress contrasting against the practicality of her black waistcoat and sash. The handcoloured lithograph by A. Carrache masterfully brings Compte-Calix's illustration to life, capturing the intricate details of the woman's outfit and the subtle shading and textures of the fabric. This beautiful piece of historical art is a must-have for any fashion enthusiast or collector of French history.
