EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the essence of coquettish charm and allure during the 1850s and 1860s, as embodied by the enigmatic Spanish coquet. Dressed in the height of fashionable attire, she dons a stunning gown adorned with intricate floral patterns and a fitted bodice, accentuating her slender figure. Her hair cascades in loose curls, adorned with delicate feathers that dance in the breeze, adding an air of playfulness and seduction. The Spanish coquet holds a fan in one hand, delicately fanning herself while gazing coyly over her shoulder. Her other hand cradles a monocle or lorgnette, a sign of sophistication and refinement, as she engages in the art of flirting. Her expressive blue eyes are filled with mischief and intrigue, inviting the viewer to indulge in a moment of fantasy and desire. The rich colors of her attire, from the deep brown ribbons that cinch her waist to the vibrant blue ribbons that adorn her fan, add to the overall allure of the image. The Spanish coquet is a timeless symbol of femininity and seduction, a reminder of the power of a woman's charms to captivate and enthrall. This photograph, taken by Terry Parker for Mary Evans Picture Library, is a captivating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to an era of elegance, romance, and the art of the coquette.
