EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a lady adorned in an exquisite Levantine hat, a tiered skirt, and a luxurious velvet jacket. The plate, titled "A Lady in a Levantine Hat, a Tiered Skirt and a Velvet Jacket" is part of the renowned Incroyable et Merveilleuse series of fashion plates engraved by Georges Jacques Gatine and published in Paris in 1797. The lady's fashionable ensemble reflects the extravagant style prevalent during that era. Her elaborate hat features delicate ostrich feathers that add an air of sophistication to her overall appearance. With her monocle and lorgnette, she exudes an aura of refinement and intellectual curiosity. This satirical engraving offers us insight into the social commentary embedded within fashion illustrations of the time.
