EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from 1803 transports us back to the elegant streets of Paris, where a woman in a riding outfit with a beaver-skin hat captures our attention. The artist, Carle Vernet, skillfully portrays this fashionable Amazone woman as she confidently holds her riding crop and exudes an air of sophistication. Dressed in a long dress adorned with a kerchief decorated with a ruffled collar, she epitomizes the height of 19th-century fashion. Her chapeau de castor (beaver-skin hat) adds an element of luxury to her ensemble, while her fichu garni d'une fraise (kerchief adorned with a ruffle) showcases her attention to detail. Handcolored by Pierre-Charles Baquoy, this copperplate engraving beautifully captures the essence of French style during this era. It was originally featured in Pierre de la Mesangeres Journal des Dames et des Modes, Magazine of Women and Fashion. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported into the world of early 19th-century France - its elegance and refinement evident in every brushstroke. This engraving serves as both an exquisite piece of art and a window into the past - reminding us that fashion has always been intertwined with culture and self-expression. Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate these historical treasures through their collection. Fine Art Finder brings them closer to us so that we can marvel at the beauty captured within each print.
