EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured lithograph captures the essence of English court fashion in 1788, during the reign of King Louis XVI. The intricate details of the court costume worn by this English man are brought to life through the skillful artistry of Paul Lacroix, also known as Le Bibliophile Jacob.
The rich colors and fine lines used in this print from "Costumes Historique de la France" transport us back to a time when elaborate attire was a symbol of status and power. The impeccable tailoring of the broker's habit, complete with cravatte and culotte, showcases the attention to detail that was characteristic of European fashion during this period.
As we gaze upon this historical figure standing confidently in his courtier attire, we are reminded of a bygone era filled with pomp and grandeur. The portrait exudes elegance and sophistication, reflecting the opulence associated with French nobility at that time.
Through this exquisite lithograph, we catch a glimpse into the world of King Louis XVI's court and witness firsthand the sartorial splendor that defined an age. It is a testament to both artistic talent and historical significance, preserving for posterity a moment frozen in time for all to admire.
