EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite fashion trends that prevailed during the reigns of Louis XIII and Louis XIV in 17th century France. Taken from Paul Lacroix's renowned work "Institutions: usages et costumes, France 1590-1700" this image offers a glimpse into the sartorial splendor of the era. The elaborate garments depicted in this chromolithography capture the opulence and grandeur associated with the royal court. From voluminous gowns adorned with intricate lace to ornate headpieces embellished with feathers and jewels, every detail exudes elegance and sophistication. Louis XIII's reign witnessed a transition from Renaissance styles to more structured silhouettes, as seen in the women's attire featuring high collars, puffed sleeves, and corsets. Meanwhile, men favored richly embroidered doublets paired with breeches and stockings. Under Louis XIV's rule, fashion reached new heights of extravagance. The Sun King himself was known for his love of luxury clothing, which set an example for French nobility. This period saw an emphasis on sumptuous fabrics such as silk brocade and velvet, along with lavish accessories like powdered wigs adorned with ribbons and plumes. Leonard de Selva skillfully captures these historical fashion moments through his lens, allowing us to appreciate their beauty even centuries later. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the resplendent style that defined two iconic periods in French
