EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning fashion plate, created by renowned English publisher and printmaker Rudolph Ackermann in 1816, showcases an elegant promenade dress of the Regency era. The full-length engraving on paper, hand-colored in vibrant hues, captures the essence of British fashion during the 1810s. The fashionable woman in the image wears an empire gown with a delicate, flowing design, accentuated by a fitted bodice and a high waistline. The gown is paired with a pelisse, a long, loose coat that was a popular outerwear choice during this period. The dress is completed with a fashionable hat adorned with a ribbon and feathers, a handbag, and a pair of elegant shoes. The woman is depicted in a serene setting, likely a park or promenade, with a picturesque landscape in the background. The use of line engraving and hand-coloring adds to the intricacy and detail of the image, making it a valuable piece of historic art and a testament to the fashion trends of the time. This fashion plate, now a part of the collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), offers a glimpse into the fashionable world of the Regency era and the elegant clothing choices of women during this period. The image is a reminder of the rich heritage of fashion and the importance of preserving and celebrating the history of clothing and textiles.
