EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Woman in the court of King Francis I, 16th century" takes us back to a bygone era of elegance and grandeur. Created in 1867 by Edmond Lechevallier-Chevignard, this artwork showcases a courtier from the royal court of King Francis I. The woman depicted here exudes sophistication and refinement as she dons a multi-colored chaperon hood and a fur-lined gown with a square-cut bodice over a vibrant red silk robe. Her attire reflects the fashion trends of the 16th century, highlighting her noble status within society. Lechevallier-Chevignard's attention to detail is evident in this handcolored lithograph, which was based on an illustration found in Georges Duplessiss' book "Costumes historiques des XVIe, XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles". The artist's expertise shines through as he captures every intricate fold and texture of the woman's clothing. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back to the splendorous courts of France during one of its most influential periods. It serves as both an artistic representation and historical documentation of the fashion choices prevalent among nobility during that time. This enchanting piece reminds us that art has always been intertwined with history, allowing us to glimpse into past societies and appreciate their cultural heritage. Lechevallier-Chevignard's talent immortalizes not only this elegant courtier but also an entire epoch filled with opulence and grace.
