EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored engraving, titled "Costume de l'Époque de Louis XVI," showcases the elegant and extravagant fashion of the late 18th century, as depicted in the illustration by Francois-Claudius Compte-Calix. The central figure is a woman of refined beauty, adorned in the height of Marie Antoinette's fashionable attire. She wears a yellow silk jacket and matching long skirt, both trimmed with intricate black silk ruffles that add a striking contrast to the soft hue of her dress. The woman's pouf hairstyle is a testament to the opulence of the era, with ringlets cascading down her back and a bonnet trimmed with lush foliage and roses. The white ribbons that secure her elaborate hairstyle add a touch of elegance and sophistication. The engraving, created by E. Bracquet, captures the essence of the Marie Antoinette era, a time of grandeur and extravagance. The woman's graceful demeanor and the intricate details of her clothing and accessories are a reflection of the refined taste and elegance of the French aristocracy during this period. The illustration, published in Paris in 1869, provides a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of beauty, elegance, and opulence. The handcoloring adds depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a true work of art that continues to captivate and inspire fashion enthusiasts and historians alike.
