EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving from 1798 showcases a fashionable woman in a Minerva hat at the iconic Tivoli Gardens. The Minerva-style hat, named after the Roman goddess of wisdom, resembles a helmet and adds an air of sophistication to her ensemble. Adorned with a wreath of foliage and ribbons, this hat is truly a statement piece. The woman's attire includes a white apron worn over a striped dress, creating an interesting contrast between elegance and practicality. Her outfit reflects the fashion trends of the time, showcasing both style and functionality. Captured on June 23rd, 1798, in Jardin de Tivoli, this image transports us back to the era of French Revolution. It was during this period that fashion became intertwined with political ideologies as royalists and republicans sought to express their allegiance through clothing choices. This exquisite illustration comes from Pierre de la Mesangeres Journal des Modes et Dames in Paris. Volume one featured works by renowned artists such as Carle Vernet, Claude Louis Desrais, and Philibert Louis Debucourt. As we admire this print by Bridgeman Images today, it serves as a reminder of how fashion has always been an integral part of society's expression and identity throughout history.
