EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning evening dress from the Regency Era, dated 1826, is a beautiful example of the fashionable attire of the time. Created by renowned English publisher and printmaker Rudolph Ackermann, this hand-coloured engraving on paper captures the essence of elegance and sophistication. The dress features a full empire line gown with short sleeves and a high neckline, accentuated by an intricately detailed headpiece. The empire gown, a popular style during the Regency Era, allowed for a more natural waistline and a voluminous skirt. The dress is accessorized with a shawl draped over the shoulders and a necklace adorned with pearls and other gemstones. The engraving showcases the rich colors and textures of the fabric, from the deep hue of the gown to the delicate patterns of the shawl. This fashion plate, a staple of Ackermann's Repository of Arts, Literature, Commerce, Manufactures, Fashions and Politics, offers a glimpse into the fashionable world of the 19th century. The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) is home to this historic artifact, a reminder of the enduring influence of fashion on art and culture.
