EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the fashion of July 1792, showcasing a French woman adorned in the exquisite attire of her time. Her ensemble is a testament to the elegance and attention to detail that defined this era. The focal point of her outfit is undoubtedly the bonnet, which sits atop her head with an air of sophistication. Adorned with ribbons, bows, flowers, feathers, and more ribbons, it serves as a true work of art. The bonnet frames her face delicately and adds an element of charm to her overall appearance. Her wig cascades down in perfect waves, adding volume and grandeur to her hairstyle. It complements the bonnet beautifully while also emphasizing the importance placed on hair during this period. A fichu or neckerchief gracefully drapes around her neck, adding a touch of modesty and refinement. This accessory not only provides warmth but also showcases intricate patterns or delicate lacework. The fitted bodice dress she wears exudes femininity and gracefulness. Its ribbon hem adds subtle flair while accentuating her figure elegantly. The corsage cinches at the waist with a girdle for added definition. Auguste Etienne Guillaumot Jr. 's handcoloured etching captures every intricate detail meticulously. This image comes from "Costumes of the French Revolution" compiled by Victorien Sardou in 1889—a collection that celebrates contemporary costume prints from this remarkable period in history. As we gaze upon this photograph today, we are reminded of both the beauty found within historical fashion trends and our ability to appreciate them through modern lenses—bridging two worlds separated by centuries yet forever connected through artistry and style.
