EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, hailing from the fashion pages of Tommaso Antongini's Journal des Dames et des Modes in 1913, showcases the elegance and opulence of the Belle Époque era. The photograph features two women, one an older woman in a stunning velvet dress with opossum fur trim, and the other a young girl in a chiffon velvet dress adorned with swan down. The older woman's dress, referred to as a "robe de velours ancien garnie d'opossum," is a masterpiece of Art Deco design. The deep, rich velvet fabric, likely in a pastel pink hue, is beautifully contrasted by the sleek, black opossum fur trim. The dress is completed with a cape, adding an air of mystery and allure. The young girl, dressed in a "robe de fillette en velours chiffon bordee de cygne," wears a pastel pink dress with a white border, trimmed with fox fur. Her outfit is reminiscent of the costumes worn by the dancers of the Ballets Russes, adding a touch of orientalism to the scene. The table in the background, adorned with a porcelain figure, adds a sense of stillness and calm to the otherwise dynamic and vibrant image. The handcoloured pochoir (stencil) etching, after an illustration by Jan van Brock, captures the essence of the fashionable Parisians of the time, exuding an undeniable sense of chic and charm. This photograph is a testament to the beauty and intrigue of the Belle Époque era, a time when fashion was an art form in and of itself. The use of opossum fur and swan down, exotic materials in Europe at the time, added an air of luxury and exclusivity to the garments, making them highly coveted by the fashionable elite. The image is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of fashion, Art Deco design, or the Belle Époque era.
