EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking handcoloured lithograph, titled "French Woman in Court Costume with Parrot," dates back to 1788 during the reign of King Louis XVI. The image is taken from the esteemed work "Costumes Historiques de la France" by Paul Lacroix, published by the Administration Librairie in Paris. The illustration showcases a French woman in an elaborate and opulent court costume, adorned with intricate gold brocade, voluminous skirts, and a high-necked bodice. Her hair is styled in an elaborate updo, held in place by a diamond and pearl headpiece. The woman's regal attire is a testament to the grandeur and elegance of the French court during this period. What sets this image apart, however, is the presence of an exotic parrot perched on the woman's shoulder. The brightly colored bird adds a touch of whimsy and liveliness to the otherwise formal scene. Parrots were a popular status symbol during the late 18th century, and their inclusion in this illustration further emphasizes the wealth and prestige of the woman depicted. The meticulous attention to detail in the lithograph is evident in the intricate patterns and textures of the fabric, the lifelike rendering of the parrot, and the expressive facial features of the woman. This beautiful and historic image offers a glimpse into the opulent world of the French court during the late 18th century, a time of grandeur, elegance, and extravagance.
