EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph, titled "Fashionable woman on the avenue des Champs-Elysees, 1888," showcases the elegance and sophistication of Parisian fashion during the late 19th century. The fashionable woman, dressed in a fitted jacket and slim, bustled dress, exudes an air of refinement as she strolls along the renowned avenue des Champs-Elysees. Her elegant hat adorned with a ribbon and veil complements her outfit, while a parasol shields her from the sun and a bouquet of flowers adds a touch of natural beauty to her attire. In the background, the iconic Marly Horse statue stands proudly, a symbol of French history and culture. The image is a testament to the grandeur and opulence of the Exposition Universelle de Paris (World's Fair) of 1889, which saw the unveiling of the Eiffel Tower and attracted millions of visitors from around the world. The illustration is based on an original work by Francois Courboin, published in Octave Uzanne's "Fashion in Paris," a popular book that documented the latest trends and styles of the time. The intricate details and vibrant colours of this lithograph provide a glimpse into the fashion aesthetics and societal norms of the French Republic during the Third Republic era. Overall, this image is a stunning representation of the elegance, sophistication, and cultural significance of Parisian fashion during the late 19th century.
