EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured lithograph captures the elegance and sophistication of fashion during the French Directory period, specifically the Napoleanic Era. The central figure is a woman dressed in a beautiful white gown adorned with pink trim, adding a touch of playfulness to the otherwise formal attire. Her casque hat, also in pink, is adorned with panaches, adding an air of refinement. The woman's striped apron completes the look, bringing a practical element to the ensemble. The man accompanying her wears a grey coat made of velvet, with a check waistcoat and a hazelnut-colored collar. He is dressed in trousers and boots, accessorized with a cane and a hat. Both their outfits reflect the fashion trends of the time, with the man's coat and the woman's hat showcasing the popular shapes and textures of the Directory period. This exquisite print is an illustration by Francois-Claudius Compte-Calix, published by A. Carrache in the collection "Les Modes Parisiennes sous le Directoire" in 1871. The intricate details and vibrant colors of the handcoloured lithograph bring the fashion plates to life, transporting us back to an era of opulence and style. The image is a testament to the enduring allure of fashion history and the beauty of the past.
