EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured copperplate engraving showcases a fashionable hairstyle popular in 1783, known as the Hedgehog hairstyle or "à la Herisson" (in French, meaning "like a hedgehog"). The elegant woman in the print wears her long hair piled high, with each strand carefully curled and secured with pins to create a textured, spiky effect reminiscent of a hedgehog's quills. The hairstyle is adorned with a delicate ribbon, adorned with a garland of vibrant spring flowers. The three large curls at the front of the hairstyle, titled "Spring" or "Printemps," add an air of playfulness and whimsy to the overall look. The intricacy and attention to detail in the engraving are truly remarkable, from the individual curls to the delicate petals of the flowers. This print is from an album of fashionable hairstyles of 1783, published by Esnauts et Rapilly in Paris. The exact artist responsible for the engraving remains unknown, but the level of skill and artistry on display is a testament to the high standards of the time. The Hedgehog hairstyle was a favourite among the fashionable ladies of the French court, including Marie Antoinette, who often wore her hair in similar styles. The print's title, "Herisson ceint d'un ruban avec une Guirlande de fleurs et 3 boucles dites a la Printemps," translates to "Hedgehog tied with a ribbon with a garland of flowers and three curls called Spring." This elegant and intricate hairstyle is a beautiful representation of the fashion trends of the time and the artistry of the period.
