EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Mannequin Parts," is a stunning example of 18th-century French artistic mastery, created by the skilled hand of A.J. Defehrt. Originally published in the renowned Encyclopédie, an influential encyclopedia edited by Denis Diderot and Jean le Rond d'Alembert between 1751 and 1772, this engraving on cream laid paper is a testament to the intricate detail and artistry of the time. The image depicts various mannequin parts, including feet, legs, and a head, meticulously arranged on a table. The anatomical accuracy and attention to detail are remarkable, with each part showing the subtle nuances of the human form. The engraving is further enhanced by the contrasting textures and tonal variations, creating a visually engaging and thought-provoking composition. The print was produced under the supervision of several notable figures of the time, including Antoine Claude Briasson, Louis Jacques Goussier, and Laurent Durand. Briasson, an engraver, and Goussier, a printer, collaborated to produce the high-quality engravings for the Encyclopédie, while Durand, a draftsman, provided the original drawings. This image is a valuable addition to any collection of historic art or art history, offering a glimpse into the intricacies of 18th-century French culture and the artistic techniques of the time. Whether displayed in an art gallery, museum, or private collection, "Mannequin Parts" is sure to inspire and intrigue viewers with its timeless beauty and historical significance.
