EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph, created by R.V. after an illustration by Francois Courboin, transports us back to the 1860s and the elegant world of French high society at the Longchamps Race Course in Paris. The image, taken from Octave Uzanne's Fashion in Paris published in 1898 by William Heinemann in London, depicts an exciting moment during the racing season as two women watch the start of a race from the shelter at Longchamps. The woman on the left is dressed in a tunic over a white crinoline, her hair swept up in an elegant chignon. She wears a simple empire-line dress adorned with a delicate lace bib and a ribbon belt, her outfit reflecting the practical yet stylish sensibilities of the era. The woman on the right, dressed in a stunning pink crinoline gown with a voluminous train, adds a touch of glamour and extravagance to the scene. Her violet dress, adorned with intricate lace detailing and a matching ribbon belt, is a testament to the opulence and elegance of the French aristocracy during this period. The shelter at Longchamps, a popular gathering place for the wealthy and fashionable, is situated near the Palace of Compiègne, the residence of Napoleon III. The season at Longchamps was a much-anticipated event in the social calendar, with hunting parties and elaborate fashion displays adding to the excitement of the races. This beautiful and intricately detailed lithograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of 19th-century French society and the cultural aesthetics of the time, capturing the elegance, opulence, and excitement of the racing season at Longchamps.
