EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a mysterious lady attending a ball during the reign of King Henry III of France, between 1573 and 1575. Adorned in an exquisite ensemble, she exudes elegance and intrigue. Her hat is beautifully embellished with pearls, adding a touch of opulence to her appearance. The most striking feature is her full-face black mask, concealing her identity and heightening the air of secrecy surrounding her presence at this lavish event. Her attire consists of a black velvet brocade dress with a corset and vertugadin or farthingale, creating an impressive silhouette that commands attention. A high lace collar frames her face while shoulder pads and slashed sleeves add fashionable flair to her outfit. From her chain belt hang a purse and mirror adorned with feathers, showcasing both practicality and style. Her hands remain hidden within an embroidered muff, adding an element of mystery as to what lies beneath its intricate design. The handcoloured copperplate engraving by Georges Jacques Gatine beautifully captures every detail, bringing this historical moment to life. This image transports us back in time to witness the grandeur and allure of French nobility during the Renaissance era. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, fashion continues to be used as a means for self-expression and capturing one's imagination.
