EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored engraving, titled "Fashionable women or Merveilleuses eating ice cream with their dogs at a cafe," is an exquisite snapshot of Parisian life in the early 19th century. The image, taken from Pierre de la Mesangere's Le Bon Genre publication in Paris, 1817, showcases the elegance and sophistication of Parisiennes, even in the most casual of settings. The Merveilleuses, or "wonderful women," are depicted indulging in the delightful treat of ice cream, their refined attire contrasting with the playful act of enjoying a sweet treat. Their low-cut dresses, revealing a hint of decollete, are adorned with intricate details and vibrant colors, while their fashionable wigs and parasols complete their stylish appearance. Their canine companions, seated at their feet, add to the whimsical scene. The menu at the cafe offers a variety of flavors, including lemon, orange, pistachio, and creme blanche, which the women eagerly savor. A waiter, dressed in the fashion of the time, attends to their every need. The satirical undertones of the engraving are evident in the exaggerated expressions of pleasure on the women's faces as they greedily consume their ice cream. The image offers a glimpse into the fashion, entertainment, and lifestyle of the Regency and Napoleonic eras, making it a valuable historical document and an intriguing work of art.
