EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts a lady in waiting to Isabelle of Bavaria, the beloved wife of King Charles VI of France, in the year 1389. The lady is shown in an elegant and formal attire, reflecting the grandeur and sophistication of the royal court. She dons a tall conical bonnet with a long veil, which was a popular fashion trend among the aristocracy of the late 14th century. Her neck is adorned with a beautiful necklace, and she wears a gold dress with a high waist and an ermine hem, which adds a touch of luxury and opulence to her appearance. The lady's dress also features a wide belt, which cinches her waist and accentuates her figure. The intricate design of the brocade fabric on the skirt of her dress and the crakows or poulaines on her feet further enhance the visual appeal of the print. This exquisite image is a handcoloured copperplate engraving by Georges Jacques Gatine, based on an illustration by Louis Marie Lante from the "Galerie Francaise de Femmes Celebres," published in Paris in 1827. The meticulous attention to detail and the vibrant colours used in the print bring the lady's regal attire to life, transporting us back in time to the opulent world of the French royal court during the late Middle Ages.
