EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print showcases the uniform of a colonel in the French Infantry during the mid-18th century. Created by renowned artist Hippolyte Lecomte, this piece captures the essence of military fashion and style from that era. The colonel is depicted wearing a white coat adorned with gold epaulettes, complemented by a blue jacket and breeches. His attire is completed with buckle shoes, a tricorn hat, and an elegant sword at his side. The intricate details of his wig add to the overall grandeur of his appearance. Lorenzo Bianchi and Domenico Cuciniello skillfully handcolored Lecomte's original work, bringing life to every element of this historical costume. This lithograph was published as part of an Italian edition titled "Costumi civili e militari della monarchia francese dal 1200 al 1820" (Civilian and Military Costumes of the French Monarchy from 1200 to 1820). Through this artwork, we are transported back in time to witness the fashion trends prevalent during King Louis XV's reign. It serves as a testament to both the artistic talent behind its creation and its significance in preserving historical clothing styles. This lithograph not only offers us insight into military attire but also provides us with valuable glimpses into French culture and monarchy during that period. It stands as a tribute to those who served in France's armed forces while simultaneously showcasing their fashionable clothing style under royal influence.
