Two Women in Late Eighteenth Century Dress
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating pen and ink drawing by the British artist William Edward Frost, created in the late 18th or early 19th century. The artwork depicts two elegant women engaged in a conversation while strolling through a picturesque garden setting. The women are dressed in the fashion of the late 18th century, with one wearing a blue dress and the other in a brown one, both adorned with intricate details and accessories typical of the era. The drawing is executed in pen and blue ink and brush on ivory wove paper, tipped on cream wove paper. Frost's masterful use of pen and ink techniques, combined with the delicate blue wash, creates a sense of depth and texture in the artwork. The women's clothing, with their voluminous skirts and high-waisted silhouettes, are rendered with meticulous attention to detail, showcasing the artist's skill and expertise in capturing the essence of the period. The setting of the drawing is idyllic, with the women walking in a garden, surrounded by lush greenery and colorful flowers. The women appear to be deep in conversation, their confidante posture and engaged expressions suggesting a close relationship. The artwork is a testament to the beauty and elegance of the late 18th century, as well as the enduring appeal of fashion and the human connection. This exquisite drawing is part of the rich collection of prints and drawings at the Art Institute of Chicago, showcasing the institution's commitment to preserving and sharing the heritage of art and fashion from the past. The artwork invites us to appreciate the artistry and craftsmanship of the past, as well as the timeless allure of fashion and the human connection.
