EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured steel engraving captures a woman in her finery during the Empire era of 1807. The intricate details of her half set ensemble, with its delicate lace and flowing fabric, showcase the elegance and sophistication of the fashion of that time. Created by Polidor Pauquet after Horace Vernet for the Pauquet Brothers' "Modes et Costumes Historique" in Paris in 1865, this print is a stunning example of historical fashion illustration.
Hippolyte and Polydor Pauquet, who operated a successful publishing house in 19th century Paris, specialized in producing illustrated books on various subjects including costume, birds, butterflies, anatomy, and natural history. Their attention to detail and artistic skill is evident in this beautiful depiction of a woman from the early 19th century.
The woman portrayed exudes grace and refinement as she stands poised in her elaborate attire. Her dress reflects the luxurious style popular during the Empire era, characterized by high waistlines and flowing silhouettes inspired by classical Greek and Roman designs. This print serves as a window into the past, allowing us to appreciate not only the beauty of historical fashion but also the artistry involved in capturing it through illustrations like this one.
