EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases a fashionable woman adorned in the latest hairstyle trend of 1783, a "Chapeau Tigre à la Pensilvaine," or Spotted Pennsylvania Hat. The woman's ringlets cascade down her shoulders, framing her elegant face and accentuating her refined features. The distinctive spotted hat, a popular accessory among the European elite, adds an air of sophistication and allure to her ensemble. The Spotted Pennsylvania Hat, also known as the "Chapeau Tigre," was a fashion statement that originated in the American colonies, specifically in Pennsylvania. This hat was characterized by its unique design, featuring a round crown adorned with small, round, raised spots, and a wide, flat brim. The hat was often made of felt or straw and was trimmed with ribbons or feathers. This image is taken from an album of "Fashionable Hairstyles of 1783," published by Esnauts et Rapilly in Paris. The album was a collection of the latest hair trends from Europe and the American colonies, and was a must-have for any fashionable woman of the time. The woman in the engraving is depicted with an elegant, refined air, her ringlets cascading down her shoulders and framing her face. Her Spotted Pennsylvania Hat sits atop her head, adding an air of sophistication and allure to her appearance. The intricate detail of the engraving, from the delicate ringlets to the raised spots on the hat, showcases the artistry and craftsmanship of the time. This image is a fascinating glimpse into the fashion trends of the late 18th century, and offers a glimpse into the elegance and sophistication of the time. The Spotted Pennsylvania Hat remains a symbol of the fashionable women of the era, and this engraving is a beautiful representation of the style and elegance of the time.
