EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print showcases the ceremonial costume of a Minister under the French Consulate, dating back to 1799-1804. The minister is depicted wearing an exquisite ensemble consisting of a bicorne hat adorned with a tricolor cockade, a silver embroidered coat, and a vibrant red sash belt. Completing the look are blue breeches and calf-length boots, adding an air of elegance and sophistication. The handcoloured lithograph was created by Lorenzo Bianchi and Domenico Cuciniello after Hippolyte Lecomte's original artwork. It was featured in the Italian edition of Lecomte's renowned publication "Costumi civili e militari della monarchia francese dal 1200 al 1820" (Civilian and military costumes of the French monarchy from 1200 to 1820), published in Naples in 1825. This stunning piece provides us with a glimpse into the fashion trends prevalent during this period. The attention to detail in both design and execution highlights the importance placed on appearance within political circles at that time. With its rich historical significance, this lithograph print serves as not only an artistic masterpiece but also as a valuable record of France's political landscape during the late eighteenth century. It offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both the craftsmanship involved in creating such elaborate attire and gain insight into how clothing played a role in conveying power and status among politicians during this era.
