EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from 1867 showcases a Flemish squire from the 16th century. The print, created by Edmond Lechevallier-Chevignard, depicts a young nobleman dressed in an elaborate costume of the era. With his cap over a net and puff-sleeved jacket, he exudes elegance and sophistication. The squire's attire includes slashed breeches, adorned with a dagger and purse hanging from his belt. In his hand, he confidently holds a lance, symbolizing his status as a warrior. This depiction is inspired by the tapestry of Uriah the Hittite in the David and Bathsheba series at Musee de Cluny. Lechevallier-Chevignard's hand-colored lithograph beautifully captures every intricate detail of this historical costume. His illustration is part of Georges Duplessiss' renowned work on historical costumes spanning three centuries. As we gaze upon this image today, we are transported back to the vibrant world of 16th-century Flandre. It offers us insight into not only fashion but also societal norms and cultural values during that time period. Edmond Lechevallier-Chevignard was not only an artist but also an accomplished book illustrator and interior designer. Through this engraving, he brings history to life for us to appreciate and admire. This remarkable piece now resides in a private collection but continues to captivate viewers with its exquisite portrayal of nobility in Renaissance-era Flandre.
