EDITORS COMMENTS
This pochoir (stencil) etching, titled "Woman in Afternoon Coat of Lemon Yellow Duvetyn with Huge Buckle," is an exquisite example of early 20th-century fashion illustration. Created by Tommaso Antongini for the renowned French publication "Journal des Dames et des Modes" in 1914, this artwork showcases the timeless elegance and allure of Parisian chic. The central figure is a woman dressed in a lemon yellow duvetyn afternoon coat, the material's rich texture and vibrant hue adding an air of sophistication and sunny optimism. The coat's oversized buckle, adorned with a moire rope design, adds a touch of drama and intrigue. Beneath the coat, she wears a white nainsook dress with ruffled sleeves and a cloche silhouette, the dress's simple yet elegant design providing a perfect contrast to the bold coat. Her outfit is completed with a hat featuring a ribbon and pleats, adding a playful touch to her ensemble. This illustration is a testament to the Art Deco and Belle Époque influences that dominated the fashion world during this time, with its use of bold colors, intricate textures, and elegant silhouettes. The Orientalist influences are also evident in the use of the moire rope design on the coat buckle, reflecting the global cultural exchange that was shaping the fashion industry. This illustration also has connections to the world of ballet and the Ballets Russes, as Antongini was known for his work in creating costumes for the company. The woman's pose, with one foot lifted in a skip, suggests a connection to the world of dance, adding an extra layer of meaning to this stunning work of art.
