EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of 18th-century French elegance and sophistication. Titled "The à l'anglaise" this image is part of Paul Lacroix's renowned series "Institutions: usages et costumes, France 1700-1789". Created in 1875, Lacroix beautifully depicts a scene from a literary salon, showcasing the luxurious lifestyle enjoyed by the French elite during this period. In the center of the frame stands a graceful young woman, exuding charm and refinement. Dressed in an exquisite gown that epitomizes French fashion at its finest, she embodies both beauty and intellect. Surrounding her are elements that symbolize high society gatherings - tea cups filled with fragrant brews and delectable treats temptingly displayed on delicate plates. The atmosphere is one of intellectual stimulation as well as indulgence. The literary salon was not only a place for socializing but also for exchanging ideas and engaging in lively discussions about literature, art, politics, and philosophy. Leonard de Selva skillfully captured this moment in time through his lens. His expertise shines through every detail - from the intricate patterns on the woman's dress to the soft lighting that bathes the room in an ethereal glow. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph print today, we are transported back to a bygone era where opulence met intellectuality; where conversation flowed as freely as tea; where culture thrived amidst lavish surroundings. It serves as a reminder of
