EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored engraving, created by A. Lacourriere after an illustration by Francois-Claudius Compte-Calix, transports us back to the elegant and extravagant era of Marie Antoinette. The fashionable woman in the print wears a striking chapeau adorned with flowers and a veil, adding an air of mystery and allure. Her fichu, a fashionable neck scarf, peeks out from beneath the brim of her hat. The woman's outfit consists of a green velvet redingote, a long coat with a waistline that is cinched in with a sash. Beneath the redingote, she wears a grey silk dress that flows gracefully around her figure. She completes her ensemble with a cane, adding an element of sophistication and elegance. The era of Marie Antoinette was known for its opulence and grandeur, and this print captures the essence of that time perfectly. The woman's outfit is a perfect blend of style and substance, with intricate details such as the black suit and breeches worn beneath the redingote, the stockings adorned with flowers, and the pockets that add practicality to her otherwise ornate attire. Accessories such as a telescope and a lorgnette add a touch of intrigue and curiosity to the woman's appearance. The handcolored engraving by A. Lacourriere brings the illustration by Francois-Claudius Compte-Calix to life, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and elegance of fashion during the time of Marie Antoinette. The print is a testament to the enduring appeal of this iconic era and the timeless allure of fashion.
