EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning fashion plate, created by renowned English engraver John Bell in 1819, showcases an elegant walking dress of the early 19th century. The intricately detailed engraving on paper, hand-colored in white and muted hues, captures the essence of high fashion during this period. The dress, designed for the upper class, features a fitted bodice with a low neckline and short sleeves, transitioning into a full, voluminous skirt. The robe, worn over the dress, adds an extra layer of warmth and sophistication. The concept of the fashion plate was to provide women with inspiration for their seasonal wardrobes, showcasing the latest trends and styles. The well-dressed woman in this print exudes confidence and class, setting the standard for fashionable attire during the 1810s. This beautiful piece of heritage art, now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, is a testament to the enduring allure of fashion and the artistry of John Bell.
