EDITORS COMMENTS
A Chic Evening at the Italian Opera, 1852: An Exquisite Handcoloured Lithograph Step back in time to the enchanting world of 19th-century Italian opera with this stunning handcoloured lithograph by R.V., after an illustration by Francois Courboin, published in Octave Uzanne's Fashion in Paris in 1898. The image captures the opulence and elegance of a bygone era, as a fashionable couple enjoys an evening at the opera. The woman, dressed in an off-the-shoulder gown with a shawl bertha, gracefully leans forward in her box, her crinoline and flounces billowing around her. Her bonnet, adorned with volants and ribbons, sits atop her carefully coiffed hair. The man, dressed in a white tie and black coat, gazes intently through his opera glasses, a top hat resting on the floor beside him. The scene is set against the backdrop of the bustling Boulevard, with its elegant lions and the iconic Café de la Paix, Tortoni, in the distance. The icy chill of the winter season is evident in the frozen canals and the snow-capped mountains in the background. Surrounded by dandies and fops, the couple embodies the height of French society culture and aesthetics during the reign of Napoleon III and the Empire. The intricate details of their attire, from the striped pants of the man to the jacquette and tortoiseshell fan of the woman, are a testament to the meticulous craftsmanship of the era. This exquisite lithograph not only transports us back to a time of grandeur and sophistication but also offers a glimpse into the fashion and cultural norms of the 19th century. A true treasure for anyone with an appreciation for history, art, and fashion.
