EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph, titled 'Women on the Fashionable Rue de Richelieu, Paris, 1854,' offers a glimpse into the elegant and intriguing world of French high society during the mid-19th century. The image, created by the skilled hand of R.V., after an original illustration by Francois Courboin, transports us back in time to a bustling corner of Paris. Two stylish women are the focal point of the scene. The woman on the left dons a fur-lined cape and muff, her wide crinoline skirt revealing the opulence of the era. Her elegant attire is a testament to the extravagance and refinement of the time. The woman on the right, dressed in riding wear, exudes an air of independence and adventure, her check pants and top hat a stark contrast to the more traditional fashion of her companion. The setting is the fashionable Rue de Richelieu, with the East Indian Company's warehouse in the background, adding a touch of exoticism to the scene. The boulevard des Italiens, a popular promenade, can be seen on the left, adding to the lively atmosphere. The women are accompanied by a horse-drawn carriage, its livery driver in smart attire, adding to the overall sense of luxury and sophistication. The parasol-shielded woman in the carriage, with her top hat perched atop her head and her jacket pulled tightly around her, embodies the chic elegance of the time. This beautiful plate, taken from Octave Uzanne's 'Fashion in Paris,' published by William Heinemann in London in 1898, offers a fascinating insight into the aesthetics and cultural norms of French society during the Napoleonic III Empire. The intricate details, from the women's clothing to the carriage and the surrounding architecture, make this a truly captivating piece of 19th-century art.
