EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the elegant world of Parisian high society in this handcoloured pochoir (stencil) etching from the Journal des Dames et des Modes, published in 1913. The scene unfolds at Restaurant Larue, located at 27 rue Royale, where fashionable women dine in the company of impeccably dressed waiters. The waiter in this image dons a formal waistcoat and tails, exuding an air of sophistication and professionalism. The women diners are a vision of Belle Epoque glamour, adorned in the latest fashion trends of the time. One woman wears a velvet embroidered dress with a bold borde collar, while another is wrapped in a fur coat trimmed with Siberian weasel. A third woman's hat is adorned with a large, ornate broche, adding a touch of opulence to her ensemble. As they dine, the women apply lipstick from compact mirrors, their reflections captured in the etching's intricate detail. A plate of food sits untouched on the table, a testament to the extravagance of the meal. This illustration, created by Ferdinand Jean Edouard Boscher, is a stunning example of Art Deco and Orientalist influences that dominated Parisian fashion during the early 20th century. The Ballets Russes, with their exotic costumes, also left a lasting impact on the fashion scene. The pochoir technique used in this etching involves the application of colour through stencils, resulting in a vibrant and detailed image. This unique process adds to the overall allure of this scene from a bygone era.
