EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured lithograph captures the essence of 18th century aristocratic elegance, as depicted in the journal of Madame Eloffe, dressmaker and linen-merchant to the Queen and ladies of the court at Versailles. The woman in the image wears a stunning ball gown made of English taffeta, with a corset and a voluminous blue taffeta petticoat. Her chapeau is adorned with a pouf of ribbons and laurel leaves, adding to the opulence of the ensemble. In her hand, she holds a black ball mask with delicate pink trim, a necessary accessory for the masquerade balls that were a popular pastime among the French aristocracy during this period. The intricate details of the gown, the elegant curves of the mask, and the refined air of the woman all come together to transport us back to the opulent courts of Marie Antoinette and her times. This image, taken from the publication 'Fashions and Customs of Marie Antoinette and her Times' by Comte de Reiset, offers a glimpse into the grandeur and sophistication of the 18th century French nobility.
