EDITORS COMMENTS
This costume plate, titled "Dame Belgede la Fin du Xve. Siecle, No. 48, c1850," showcases the elegant attire of a well-dressed woman from the late 15th or early 16th century, as depicted in an engraving from the 19th century. The intricately detailed image, held in the collections of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), offers a glimpse into the fashionable clothing of the French upper class during this transitional period between the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. The lady is depicted wearing a voluminous pink gown, adorned with delicate lace and embroidery, and a matching robe draped over her shoulders. The rich color of the gown, reminiscent of a rose in full bloom, adds to the overall sense of opulence and elegance. The engraving, which is both hand-colored and line-engraved, captures the intricacies of the textiles and the fine details of the woman's headdress and jewelry. The location of the image is not explicitly stated, but the Parisian influence on the fashion is evident, as the style of the gown and the woman's overall appearance are consistent with the fashionable trends of the French capital during this period. The image serves as a reminder of the importance of fashion as a marker of social class and status, and the enduring allure of the clothing of the past. Despite the unknown creator of this costume plate, the image remains a valuable addition to the heritage art collections, offering a window into the past and a reminder of the rich and varied history of fashion.
