EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Woman fixing her hair on a grassy bank, Paris, 1804" transports us back to the elegant streets of early 19th-century France. The image showcases a woman in the midst of a private moment, delicately arranging her hair while seated on a lush grassy bank. Her attire is as enchanting as the scene itself – she dons a pink Mamluk tunic adorned with Turkish muslin borders. With grace and poise, she ties her scarf around her back while her bonnet rests gently on the verdant carpet beneath her. This fashion-forward ensemble reflects the prevailing trends of French culture during this period. The hand-colored copperplate engraving by Pierre-Charles Baquoy after Carle Vernet captures every intricate detail of this fashionable lady's clothing and demeanor. It was originally featured in Pierre de la Mesangeres Journal des Dames et des Modes, Magazine of Women and Fashion in Paris during An 12 (1804). As we gaze upon this exquisite print from Fine Art Finder's private collection, we are transported to an era where elegance reigned supreme. The woman's refined appearance exudes femininity and sophistication that transcends time. Through this artwork, we catch a glimpse into both historical costume design and societal norms surrounding fashion in early 19th-century France. It serves as a testament to the enduring allure of timeless style and reminds us that even centuries later, beauty remains eternal.
