EDITORS COMMENTS
The Court at Compiegne, 1869: A Moment of Leisure and Elegance This handcoloured lithograph, created by R.V. after an illustration by Francois Courboin, offers a glimpse into the opulent world of the French court during the hunting season at the Palace of Compiegne. The image, published by William Heinemann in London in 1898, depicts Madame de M. watching the hunting party as they set off from the square at the Tuileries. The woman in the foreground, elegantly dressed in a violet gown with a crinoline empire waist, black ribbon belt, and black lace bib and apron, embodies the refined fashion of the time. Her mantelet, a fashionable cape worn over the shoulders, is adorned with fur, adding an air of luxury and warmth. The Palace of Compiegne, located in the Oise region of France, was a favorite residence of Napoleon III during the hunting season. The courtyard, filled with families and children, is a bustling scene of activity, as the court prepares for the day's hunt. The Place du Carrousel, located at the entrance of the palace, serves as the departure point for the hunting party. The verdant greenery of the surroundings adds to the idyllic setting, with the palace's grand architecture serving as a backdrop. The image transports us to a bygone era, where the elegance and sophistication of the French court were on full display. This print is a testament to the beauty and grandeur of the past, offering a glimpse into the lives of the wealthy and powerful during a time of leisure and relaxation.
