EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured steel engraving captures the essence of a servant woman from the reign of Henry III in 1586. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring to life the historical fashion and costume of this time period, showcasing the skillful artistry of Hippolyte Pauquet and his brother Polydor.
Hippolyte Pauquet, born in 1797, was a talented artist who, along with his brother Polydor, ran a successful publishing house in Paris during the 19th century. Specializing in illustrated books on various subjects such as costume, birds, butterflies, anatomy, and natural history, their work became highly sought after for its beauty and accuracy.
In this particular print, we see a servant woman dressed in attire typical of the late 16th century. Her clothing reflects the style and elegance of the Renaissance era, with intricate patterns and luxurious fabrics that denote her status. The attention to detail in her outfit is exquisite, from the ruffled collar to the delicate embroidery on her sleeves.
As we admire this piece of historical artwork, we are transported back in time to an era where fashion was not just about clothing but also about social standing and identity. This engraving serves as a reminder of how art can preserve moments from history for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
