EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite pochoir (stencil) etching captures the essence of elegance and sophistication during the Belle Epoque and Art Deco periods. The image features a woman gracefully skiing in a stunning lemon crushed velvet coat, adorned with a white fox collar and cuffs. The coat's rich texture and vibrant hue are further accentuated by the intricate embroidery and wool frieze trim. The woman's outfit is reminiscent of the chic Parisian fashion scene of the early 20th century, as depicted in Tommaso Antongini's Journal des Dames et des Modes. The plate, hand-coloured using the pochoir technique, showcases the attention to detail and artistry of the time. The ski scene adds an element of adventure and modernity to the image, reflecting the growing popularity of winter sports and outdoor activities among the affluent classes. The woman's ski pole and the ski in the foreground further emphasize the connection between fashion and function. The coat's collar and cuffs are trimmed with white fox fur, adding a touch of luxury and glamour to the ensemble. The use of real fur was a common practice during this period, reflecting the prevailing attitudes towards animal pelts and the desire for opulence. The overall effect of this image is one of timeless beauty and allure, transporting us back to a bygone era of glamour and sophistication. The woman's poised and confident demeanor, along with the intricate details of her outfit, make this a truly captivating and evocative work of art.
