EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the essence of early 20th century elegance and the allure of the great outdoors. The woman in the photograph, dressed in a striking tweed hunting outfit, exudes confidence and sophistication as she holds a shotgun at the ready. The rich blue velvet long jacket, adorned with a checkerboard design, is paired with a tweed skirt and matching gaiters, creating a cohesive and chic ensemble. Her outfit is completed with a muff, a hat with a robe en velours de laine bleu, and gloves. This beautiful handcoloured pochoir (stencil) etching is an illustration from Tommaso Antongini's Journal des Dames et des Modes, published in Paris in 1912. The Art Deco and Belle Epoque influences are evident in the intricate design and the woman's graceful posture. The Orientalist elements, such as the exotic background and the woman's hat, add an additional layer of allure to the image. The woman's outfit is reminiscent of the costumes worn by dancers in the Ballets Russes, which were known for their avant-garde and innovative designs. The Parisians of the time embraced the latest fashion trends, and this image showcases the chic and stylish aesthetic of the era. The intricate detail and vibrant colors of this print make it a timeless piece of art and a testament to the enduring appeal of fashion history.
