EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored engraving, titled "Dame en Escharpe" from Henri Bonnart's "Recueil des modes de la cour de France," dates back to the early 18th century, around 1703-1704. The image showcases a fashionable French woman adorned in the latest trends of the Baroque era. She wears a voluminous, fringed gown with a high waistline, a fashion that was popular during this time. The dress is accessorized with a colorful veil, which is held in place by a delicate mask, adding an air of mystery and elegance to her appearance. The intricate detailing of the woman's dress is evident in the close-up view of the fabric's texture, which is depicted with great precision in the engraving. The lettering at the bottom of the print indicates that the dress is made of various fabrics, including "taffeta, damask, and velvet." The dress is also adorned with intricate embroidery and lace, adding to its opulence. The woman's attire is a reflection of the extravagant and ornate fashion trends of the French court during the Baroque era. The use of bold colors and intricate textures was a hallmark of this period, and the woman's dress embodies these characteristics perfectly. The print, which is now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, is a testament to the rich heritage of fashion and art from the 18th century. The "Recueil des modes de la cour de France" was a popular series of fashion plates published in France during the 17th and 18th centuries. These plates were produced by various artists and engravers, including Henri Bonnart, and were widely circulated throughout Europe, making them an important source of information about the latest fashion trends of the time.
