EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite pochoir (stencil) etching captures the essence of the Belle Époque and Art Deco periods, showcasing a woman in a stunning coral-print silk house gown over a linen petticoat. The woman's robe interieure, or interior robe, is a testament to the opulence and elegance of the time, with its open front revealing intricate embroidery and chiffon sleeves. The coral print, reminiscent of exotic coral reefs, adds a touch of orientalism to the design. The woman gazes intently at the aquarium filled with vibrant goldfish, their scales reflecting the warm hues of the coral print. The room is adorned with columns and curtains, creating an air of grandeur and sophistication. The woman's attire, with its manchons, or cuffs, and columnar silhouette, is a reflection of the fashionable trends of the time, influenced by the Ballets Russes and Parisian chic. The etching, hand-colored in a rich palette, is an illustration from Tommaso Antongini's Journal des Dames et des Modes, published in Paris in 1913. The illustration was created by the renowned artist George Barbier, known for his elegant and sophisticated designs. The image is a beautiful example of the Art Deco style, with its bold lines, geometric shapes, and use of color. The woman's robe, with its gold eye embroidery and leopard skin cape, adds an element of glamour and allure to the scene.
