EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Chic Parisian Gentleman at the Racetrack, 1913 This image, a handcoloured pochoir (stencil) etching, showcases a fashionable Parisian man in an eclectic outfit, exuding an air of elegance and sophistication. Dressed in a dressing gown over yellow trousers and a green waistcoat, he embodies the Art Deco and Belle Époque styles that were popular during this era. The man's dressing gown, or "robe de chambre," is adorned with intricate orientalist patterns, reflecting the influence of the Ballets Russes and the exoticism that permeated European culture at the time. As he stands at the racetrack, the man's attention is focused on the horse race unfolding before him. The vibrant colours of the winning horses – red, blue, and white – are mirrored in the poppy in his hand, adding a touch of whimsy and playfulness to the scene. His outfit, while seemingly unconventional for a day at the races, is a testament to the man's unique sense of style and the freedom that the Roaring Twenties offered for self-expression. The image is an etching after an illustration by George Barbier, published in Tommaso Antongini's Journal des Dames et des Modes in 1913. The handcoloured pochoir technique adds depth and richness to the print, making it a stunning addition to any art or fashion collection. This piece offers a glimpse into the fashionable world of Parisians during the early 20th century, a time of artistic innovation and cultural transformation.
