EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored lithograph captures the essence of Parisian fashion during the Directory period (1795-1799) with its depiction of a stylish woman adorned in the latest trends. The central figure wears a yellow silk jacket and matching long skirt, accessorized with a black bonnet trimmed with lush foliage. The woman's wig, also in yellow, is styled in elegant curls that cascade down her back. The bonnet, a popular headpiece during this era, is adorned with intricate black ruffles and ribbons, adding an air of sophistication to the ensemble. The illustration is the work of Francois-Claudius Compte-Calix, a renowned French artist known for his meticulous attention to detail and captivating portrayals of Parisian fashions. The handcolored lithograph technique adds depth and vibrancy to the image, bringing the woman's outfit to life and transporting us back in time to the 18th century. During the Directory period, French women embraced bold colors and luxurious fabrics, often pairing them with natural elements such as flowers and foliage. This woman's outfit is no exception, with the yellow silk jacket and skirt contrasting beautifully with the black bonnet and the lush greenery that adorns it. The Paris Fashions under the Directory series, of which this illustration is a part, was published in Paris in 1865 and remains an invaluable resource for scholars and fashion historians studying the fashion trends of the late 18th century. This image offers a glimpse into the elegant and intricate world of Parisian fashion during a time of political and social upheaval, showcasing the resilience and creativity of the Parisiennes despite the challenges of the era.
