EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases a woman elegantly dressed for a journey in a cabriolet, a popular mode of transportation among the aristocracy during the late 18th century. The woman wears a fashionable outfit inspired by the latest trends, as documented in the journal of Madame Eloffe, dressmaker and linen-merchant to Marie Antoinette and the ladies of the French court. The woman's jacket, in the rich hue of Peking puce, features an intriguing design with three collars, a style that was all the rage during this period. She pairs the jacket with a gilet and petticoat in the vibrant shade of Peking apple-green, adding a pop of color to her ensemble. A felt hat adorned with feathers completes her look, along with a pair of gloves and a whip for control over her cabriolet. The cabriolet, an open-topped carriage, allowed the passengers to enjoy the scenic views of the French countryside while traveling in style and comfort. The woman's refined appearance and the luxurious cabriolet reflect the opulence and grandeur of the French aristocracy during the reign of Marie Antoinette at the Palace of Versailles. This hand-colored lithograph is an exquisite example of the fashion illustrations found in Le Comte de Reiset's Fashions and Customs of Marie Antoinette and her Times, published in Paris in 1885. The meticulous attention to detail and the use of rich colors bring the image to life, transporting us back to an era of elegance, luxury, and refinement.
