EDITORS COMMENTS
"This exquisite hand-colored engraving, titled 'Dame qui Joue de la Viole en Chantant' (Lady Playing the Viola While Singing), is a captivating masterpiece by the renowned French artist Nicolas Bonnart, created between 1682 and 1686. The image showcases a fashionable woman, elegantly dressed in the latest styles of the Baroque era, seated and engrossed in the art of music. She gracefully plucks the strings of her viola while singing, her expressive face revealing a deep concentration and passion for her craft. The lady's attire is a stunning example of the opulence and sophistication of the 17th century. Her gown is adorned with intricate fringing and delicate floral patterns, the color of which complements her deep blue, heavily-embroidered bodice. Her voluminous sleeves, adorned with lace and ribbons, add to the grandeur of her ensemble. Her hair is meticulously styled in an elaborate, high-piled coif, bedecked with ribbons and adorned with a magnificent headdress. The detailed lettering at the bottom of the print, written in French, identifies the subject as a 'Dame' (Lady) and reveals her pastime as 'Joue de la Viole en Chantant' (Playing the Viola While Singing). This image, with its rich colors and intricate details, is a testament to the artistic and fashionable sensibilities of the Baroque era and serves as a window into the world of 17th-century French courtly life." This stunning artwork is part of the extensive collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), and it is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of fashion, art, and music during the Baroque era. The meticulous attention to detail and the timeless beauty of this print make it a true treasure for art and fashion enthusiasts alike.
