EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases a woman in a stunning violet satin dress with a matching purple sash, adorned with large velvet flowers, from the year 1913. The woman is depicted in a half-mourning outfit, with a black and white striped cape draped over her shoulders, adding an air of elegance and sophistication. In her hand, she holds an incense thurible, a symbol of prayer and spirituality. The woman's outfit is reminiscent of the Art Deco and Belle Epoque eras, with their emphasis on opulence and ornate detailing. The use of vibrant colors and intricate patterns is characteristic of the Orientalist influences that were popular during this time, as seen in the ballets Russes and among Parisian high society. This image is a hand-colored pochoir (stencil) etching, created after an illustration by Georges Robert for the Journal des Dames et des Modes in Paris. The intricacy and detail of the printing process are evident in the rich colors and sharp lines, making this a truly beautiful and unique piece of art. The woman's graceful pose and serene expression convey a sense of tranquility and refinement, making this a timeless and captivating image that continues to inspire and delight.
