EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph from 1898 transports us back to the year 1814, after the fall of Napoleon, where a woman in a luxurious fur-lined coat and muff is seen visiting the Tatar and Kalmyk Cossack bivouacs on the Champs Elysees in Paris. The scene depicts a unique moment in history when French women ventured into this encampment, showcasing their curiosity for foreign cultures. The woman's attire exudes elegance and opulence, with her fur accessories adding an extra layer of sophistication. Her fashionable hat complements her ensemble perfectly as she confidently explores the cossack encampment. Surrounding her are soldiers dressed in traditional uniforms, tents dotting the park landscape, and even a statue serving as a reminder of France's rich history. This lithograph not only captures fashion trends of the time but also provides insight into French society during this period. It reflects how cultural exchange was embraced amidst political changes and highlights Europe's interconnectedness. The artist behind this illustration is Francois Courboin, whose attention to detail brings every element to life. Octave Uzanne's book "Fashion in Paris" serves as its source material, offering readers glimpses into 19th-century aesthetics and style. As we admire this piece today, it reminds us of both historical events and timeless fashion that continues to inspire generations.
