EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite copperplate etching captures the essence of 18th century elegance and sophistication, as embodied by the young woman in English-style dress depicted. Dressed in the latest fashion, she wears a robe à l'Anglaise with a laced bodice, revealing intricate detailing and a hint of the delicate lace that adorns the back of her gown. Her elegant attire is completed by a fitted coat and waistcoat, both adorned with embroidery, adding an air of opulence and refinement. The young woman's fashionable appearance is further accentuated by her gentleman companion, who is also dressed in the latest style. He wears a fashionable coat and waistcoat, with a vest underneath, all in a rich, dark hue. The etching, created by Auguste Etienne Guillaumot from the Costumes et coiffures du XVIIIe siecle, is a stunning example of the intricate detail and craftsmanship that characterized French fashion during the era of Marie Antoinette. Originally illustrated by Pierre Thomas Le Clerc for the Gallerie des Modes et Costumes Francais between 1778 and 1787, this etching offers a glimpse into the world of 18th century French fashion and the elegance and sophistication that defined the period. The intricate detail and beautiful use of color in the etching make it a true work of art, and a must-have for any collection of historical fashion illustrations.
