EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Femme de Qualité en Grisette" by Jean de Dieu, dates back to the 17th century and is a stunning representation of fashion and affluence during the French court. The image, part of the "Recueil des modes de la cour de France" collection, depicts a woman of quality, dressed in the latest grisette fashion. The grisette was a humble peasant dress that became popular among the French aristocracy as a sign of elegance and refinement. The woman is depicted seated in an ornate armchair, her posture relaxed and at ease. She wears a simple yet elegant grey dress adorned with intricate lace and a matching head dress. Her headdress, a symbol of her status, is adorned with ribbons and flowers. The chair, with its elaborate design and rich fabric, reflects the opulence of the time. The engraving is hand-coloured, adding depth and vibrancy to the image. The use of colour enhances the intricate details of the woman's dress and the ornate design of the chair. The overall effect is one of timeless beauty and elegance, transporting us back to a bygone era of wealth and affluence. This piece is a testament to the importance of fashion and art during the French court in the 17th century. It is a valuable addition to any collection of heritage art and a reminder of the rich cultural history of France. Currently, this engraving is housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, where it continues to inspire and delight visitors from around the world.
