EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the essence of early 20th century elegance and glamour. The woman in the photograph wears a stunning velvet waistcoat, adorned with intricate embroidery and trimmed with precious Kolinski fur from Siberia. The diagonal stripe and diagonal cut of the waistcoat add a dynamic and modern touch to the traditional outfit, which also includes a matching tunic and skirt. The woman accessorizes her ensemble with a luxurious muff, adding an extra layer of warmth and sophistication. As she prepares for a promenade, the woman takes a moment to apply her lipstick in front of a compact mirror. The reflection in the mirror shows her refined and polished appearance, complete with an elegant updo and delicate jewelry. The overall effect is that of a chic Parisian woman of the Belle Epoque, who embodies the spirit of the Art Deco movement and the exoticism of the Orient, as popularized by the Ballets Russes. This image is a handcoloured pochoir (stencil) etching, taken from an illustration by Jan van Brock in Tommaso Antongini's Journal des Dames et des Modes, published in Paris in 1913. The meticulous attention to detail and the rich use of colour add to the allure and timeless appeal of this fashion plate.
