This handcoloured copperplate engraving from 1797 showcases a woman dressed in the fashion of the Directoire era. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring to life her elegant attire, providing a glimpse into the style of this historical period. The woman is adorned with a gathered cap, delicately tied with drawstrings, adding a touch of sophistication to her ensemble. Her crossed overcoat exudes confidence and refinement, while the long shawl drapes gracefully around her shoulders. A gold chain adorns her neck, featuring a crystal heart pendant that adds an element of charm and allure. Titled "Woman in the fashion of the Directoire" this print captures not only the clothing but also the essence of this era's style.

Created by Pierre Charles Baquoy for Pierre de la Mesangere's Journal des Modes et Dames in Paris, this illustration exemplifies artistic talent through its meticulous execution. Carle Vernet, Claude Louis Desrais, and Philibert Louis Debucourt contributed their skills to bring this piece to life. Whether you are fascinated by history or simply appreciate fine artistry, this enchanting print transports you back to 18th-century France when fashion was as much about making statements as it was about personal expression.
