Title: Fashion Plate (A Walking Dress, or Carriage Costume), 1811, by Rudolph Ackermann This fashion plate, created by renowned German engraver Rudolph Ackermann in 1811, showcases an elegant woman of the Regency era adorned in the latest fashion trends. The image, a coloured engraving on paper, depicts the woman in a carriage dress or coatdress, a popular style during this period. The dress, characterized by its long, flowing skirt and fitted bodice, is accentuated by a fur trim and a matching hat with a delicate headdress. The woman holds a handbag, a practical accessory for a day out, and wears a coat with a fur collar, adding an extra layer of warmth and sophistication to her ensemble. The scene takes place in Europe or America, as evidenced by the diverse cultural influences present in the fashion. The woman stands in a serene setting, perhaps on a promenade, surrounded by lush greenery and a picturesque landscape. The lettering at the bottom of the plate reads "A Walking Dress, or Carriage Costume," indicating that this fashion plate was intended to inspire and inform ladies of the latest styles for both carriage rides and leisurely strolls. This beautiful and historic artwork is a testament to the fashion culture of the time and serves as an important piece of heritage art. It is currently on exhibit at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world.
