EDITORS COMMENTS
In this handcoloured lithograph by the Gihaut brothers, we witness a scene of flirtation and amusement between a lady and a foppish gentleman in an elegant 19th-century parlour. The lady, adorned in a stunning gown and a fashionable bonnet, leans forward on the edge of a plush sofa, her expressive eyes locked on the foppish gentleman who stands before her, a quizzical smile playing on her lips. The gentleman, dressed in the height of fashion with a powdered wig, frilly shirt, and a cane, seems to be the object of her amusement, his face contorted in a foolish expression as he attempts to impress her with his wit and charm. The parlour, filled with ornate furnishings and decorative objects, serves as the perfect backdrop for this comedic social scene. A table laden with fine china and a mantel adorned with exotic curiosities add to the opulence of the room, while a window opens up to reveal a serene garden beyond. The handcoloured details of the lithograph bring the scene to life, from the intricate patterns on the lady's gown to the delicate flowers in the vase on the mantel. This image is taken from Jean Gabriel Scheffer's "Petites Scenes du Monde," a popular series of illustrated prints that captured the humor and social nuances of 19th-century life. The Gihaut brothers' handcoloured lithograph adds an extra layer of visual richness to Scheffer's original illustration, making it a delightful and intriguing glimpse into the world of 19th-century fashion, comedy, and social interaction.
