EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, hailing from the fashionable year of 1913, showcases a dapper gentleman in a striking new ensemble designed by the renowned fashion house of Kriegck. The man dons a sleek, midnight-blue suit tailored to perfection, complete with a pearl-embellished vest and a pristine white shirt. The outfit is further accentuated by a bold, red-lined cape, adding an air of sophistication and elegance. The woman accompanying him is equally fashion-forward, wearing a chic polka-dot crepe dress in shades of green and cherry red. Her ensemble is reminiscent of the Belle Époque and Art Deco styles that dominated the Parisian fashion scene during this era. The plate, hand-colored using the pochoir (stencil) etching technique, is an exquisite example of the intricate detail and artistry that characterized the fashion illustrations of the time. This illustration was originally published in Tommaso Antongini's Journal des Dames et des Modes, a prestigious French fashion magazine. The image also evokes the spirit of the Orientalism and Ballets Russes that were popular during this period, with the man's attire bearing a resemblance to the costumes worn by Parisians seeking to emulate the chic trends of the time. The presence of a small dog at their feet adds a playful touch to the otherwise formal scene. This image is a testament to the enduring allure of fashion and the artistry of the past. It invites us to appreciate the elegance and sophistication of a bygone era, while also serving as a reminder of the timeless appeal of well-designed clothing and accessories.
