EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite copperplate etching by Auguste Etienne Guillaumot, titled 'Fashionable woman with rose and fan, dress a la Polonaise, era of Marie Antoinette,' transports us back to the opulent and elegant world of the French Court during the late 18th century. The fashionable woman depicted in this image wears a stunning robe a la Polonaise, a popular style during the reign of Marie Antoinette. The dress, made of unified fabric with a coqueluchon (padded lining), features a large hat adorned with a voluminous frill and a long, flowing apron. The woman's ringlets cascade down her shoulders, framing her face and adding to the overall air of refinement. In her hand, she holds a fan, delicately open, while her other hand cradles a rose, adding a touch of natural beauty to the scene. The intricate detail of the woman's hairstyle, as well as the folds and textures of her dress, are masterfully captured in this etching, which was originally illustrated by Francois Louis Joseph Watteau and published in the 'Gallerie des Modes et Costumes Francais' between 1778 and 1787. This beautiful work of art provides a fascinating glimpse into the fashion and style of the era of Marie Antoinette, a time of grandeur and elegance that continues to captivate our imagination.
