EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "R for King and Queen - S for Sun and Selena (the Moon), ca. 1920" transports us back to the enchanting world of early twentieth-century France. Measuring 31x24 cm, this artwork is part of the private collection and was originally featured in the renowned publication "Alphabet du bal costume" by Hachette, Paris. Created by an anonymous French artist from the 20th century, this piece showcases intricate illustrations by S. Decam. The alphabet primer theme adds a touch of educational charm to its artistic appeal. The image captures two figures dressed as royalty – a king and queen – representing the letter R. They exude regal elegance with their elaborate costumes that reflect traditional French attire from that era. Standing beside them is Selena, personifying the moon (S). Bathed in moonlight, she radiates ethereal beauty against a backdrop of sunbeams breaking through clouds. This print not only celebrates artistry but also offers insight into cultural customs prevalent during that time period. It serves as a visual reminder of France's rich history and its influence on fashion and style. With its delicate details and nostalgic ambiance, this print evokes a sense of wonderment while paying homage to both fine art and cultural heritage. It stands as a testament to the enduring allure of early twentieth-century aesthetics.
