EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite copperplate etching by Auguste Etienne Guillaumot, titled 'Bourgeoise se promenant avec sa fille' (A Bourgeoise Woman Strolling with Her Daughter), transports us back to the elegant era of Marie Antoinette. The image, taken from the renowned 'Costumes et coiffures du XVIIIe siecle' (Costumes and hairstyles of the 18th century) publication by Cagnon in Paris, 1875, is an original illustration by Pierre Thomas Le Clerc from the 'Gallerie des Modes et Costumes Francais' (Gallery of French Fashions and Costumes), published between 1778 and 1787. The fashionable bourgeoise woman, dressed in the height of English style, is depicted gracefully strolling with her blonde-haired daughter under the warm midday sun at the Palais Royal. Her voluminous, flowing gown, adorned with intricate floral patterns, is accessorized with a stylish Devonshire hat, which adds a touch of sophistication to her ensemble. The daughter, dressed in a simple yet elegant dress, holds onto her mother's hand, her curly locks cascading down her shoulders. The etching, created during the reign of Marie Antoinette, captures the essence of the French aristocracy's love for fashion and the joy of a mother-daughter moment in the picturesque setting of the Palace. This beautiful artwork, a testament to the opulence and elegance of the time, continues to inspire and captivate audiences even today.
