EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving showcases a bourgeois costume from the reign of Louis XII in 16th century France. The print, part of a private collection, is an illustration for "The Book of Historical Costumes" which meticulously drew inspiration from authentic documents and specimens of each period. Created by the French School in the 19th century, this piece bears the signature of H[ippolyte Louis] Pauquet. The image transports us back to a time when fashion was as much a statement as it was an art form. The man depicted wears robes that exude elegance and sophistication, reflecting the sartorial tastes prevalent during this era. His attire includes a stylish hat and cap, adding flair to his ensemble. As we admire this historical representation, we are reminded of how clothing has always been intertwined with culture and history. This engraving not only captures the essence of French fashion but also provides insight into societal norms and customs during Louis XII's reign. With its intricate details and vibrant colors, this print serves as both an educational tool for those interested in historical costumes and a beautiful work of art that can be appreciated by all. It allows us to appreciate the craftsmanship involved in creating such elaborate garments while offering glimpses into centuries past.
