EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the elegant and youthful Sophie Perumon (1801-1854) in a riding costume, gracefully posing among the scenic beauty of the Bois de Boulogne in Paris, France, around 1845. The Bois de Boulogne, a popular recreational area in the heart of Paris, served as a picturesque backdrop for the fashionable elite of the time. Sophie's riding habit, a quintessential piece of 19th-century equestrian attire, is depicted in rich black, accentuating her sleek silhouette. The high collar, long sleeves, and fitted waistline of her dress are characteristic of the era's riding fashion. The vibrant colors and intricate details of her outfit are brought to life through the skillful application of oil paint, creating a striking contrast against the muted tones of the forested landscape. The portrait, a testament to the opulence and refinement of the period, is a captivating example of historic French art. It is currently housed in the Musée Carnavalet, a renowned Parisian museum dedicated to the history of Paris. This enchanting image invites us to explore the rich heritage of French fashion and the allure of the city's storied past.
