This exquisite copperplate etching by Auguste Etienne Guillaumot, titled "La Nymphe galante au Palais Royal," transports us back to the elegant and opulent era of Marie Antoinette. The woman depicted in the image wears a fashionable outfit typical of the late 18th century, with a draped skirt gracefully covering striped petticoats. She holds a parasol shielding her from the sun, adding a touch of sophistication and leisure to her attire. The woman's bonnet, known as a "bonnet à la Richard," is adorned with delicate ribbons and flowers, reflecting the intricate and intricate hairstyles popular during this period. The man accompanying her, a fashionable gentleman or dandy, dons a coat, breeches, boots, and a hat, all in keeping with the fashionable trends of the time. This stunning illustration is an original work by Francois Louis Joseph Watteau, taken from the "Gallerie des Modes et Costumes Francais," published in Paris between 1778 and 1787. The meticulous detail and attention to fashion and style make this etching an invaluable resource for historians and fashion enthusiasts alike, providing a glimpse into the elegant and refined world of Marie Antoinette and her court. The copperplate etching process, a popular method for producing high-quality prints during the 18th and 19th centuries, allowed for intricate details and nuanced shading, resulting in an image of exceptional beauty and clarity. This particular print, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, is a testament to the enduring allure and fascination of the fashion and culture of the past.
