Barbier Crinoline Crinolines Handkerchief Infanta Infante Performance Possibly Skirted Wide 1924 Theatrical
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "La Rose de l'Infante: A Woman in a Wide-Skirted Crinoline," was captured by the renowned French photographer, Barbier, in the year 1924. The image features a woman dressed in an elegant crinoline, a voluminous skirt that was popular during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The crinoline, which is brown in color, is adorned with intricate floral patterns, giving it a romantic and feminine appearance. The woman in the photograph holds a handkerchief delicately in her hand, adding a touch of intimacy and vulnerability to the image. The setting of the photograph is a garden, with lush greenery and vibrant flowers surrounding the woman. It is unclear whether this was taken for a theatrical performance or simply as a fashion statement, but the woman's regal posture and the elegant setting suggest that it may have been for a theatrical production. The crinoline, which was often associated with the Victorian era, was a symbol of wealth and status, making it an ideal choice for a theatrical performance. Barbier, a master of photography, expertly captures the essence of the crinoline and the woman's grace and elegance in this timeless photograph. The use of natural light and the soft focus create a dreamlike quality, transporting us back in time to a bygone era of opulence and luxury. This photograph is a testament to Barbier's skill as a photographer and the enduring allure of the crinoline as a symbol of femininity and grace.
