EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print titled "Grand Master of the University, France, 1810.1825" takes us back to the First French Empire era in France. The image showcases the ceremonial robe worn by a distinguished figure - the Grand Master of the University. The grandeur and elegance of this attire are truly remarkable. The blue and gold hat, along with an ermine-lined cape and intricately embroidered blue robes, exude sophistication and authority. Every detail has been meticulously handcolored to bring out its true splendor. The lithograph is part of Lorenzo Bianchi and Domenico Cuciniello's Italian edition of Hippolyte Lecomte's renowned work on civilian and military costumes from the French monarchy between 1200 and 1820. It offers us a glimpse into the fashion trends prevalent during that period. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this print also symbolizes education, politics, and power. As a representative of the university system in France during Napoleon Bonaparte's reign (1804-1815), this dignitary played a crucial role in shaping educational policies. Intriguingly captured within this artwork is not just an individual but also a snapshot of an entire era - one marked by imperial rule, political maneuvering, and societal transformations. Whether you appreciate historical costume design or have an interest in French history or politics, this lithograph print serves as both a visual delight and a window into a significant chapter in European history.
