EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Gabrielle d'Estrees, the Marchioness of Monceaux and mistress of King Henry IV of France during the late 16th century. Her striking beauty is enhanced by her blonde hair intricately tied in a pearl lattice, which adds an air of elegance to her appearance. She dons a three-tier lace ruff collar that frames her face gracefully, while her dress features slashed sleeves and a corset that accentuate her figure. The English clamshell farthingale or vertugadin she wears further emphasizes her regal stature with its ornate decoration. A three-string pearl necklace adorns her neck, adding a touch of opulence to the ensemble. In one hand, she holds a fan - an accessory commonly used during this period for both practical and fashionable purposes. Gabrielle's other hand holds a mirror, symbolizing vanity and self-reflection. This gesture suggests that she is aware of her own allure and takes pride in it. The artist skillfully captures Gabrielle's poise and confidence through his detailed engraving technique. This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving was created by Georges Jacques Gatine based on an illustration by Louis Marie Lante for the Galerie Francaise de Femmes Celebres in Paris in 1827. It offers us a glimpse into the life and style of one of history's most famous mistresses who left an indelible mark on French court fashion during the Renaissance era.
