EDITORS COMMENTS
In this handcoloured lithograph by R.V., after an illustration by Francois Courboin from Octave Uzanne's "Fashion in Paris," published by William Heinemann in London in 1898, we find a fashionable woman immersed in the grandeur of the Louvre Museum in 1806. The woman, adorned in the height of 19th-century fashion, dons a straw bonnet embellished with feathers, a shawl, and a high-waisted dress. Her elegant attire is a striking contrast to the ancient Greek sculptures that surround her, including the renowned Discobolus of Myron. The woman's fashionable ensemble is reminiscent of the neoclassical style that was popular during the Bourbon Restoration in France. The check pattern on her dress and the kerchief around her neck are indicative of the sporting trend, which was influenced by the pastime of horse riding and hunting in the parks and folly châteaux of Paris, such as Parc de Bagatelle in Bois de Boulogne. The neo-Palladian architecture of the Louvre Museum serves as a backdrop to this scene, further emphasizing the juxtaposition of the old and the new. The King Charles horse, a popular breed during this time, can be seen in the background, adding to the sense of elegance and refinement. This image offers a glimpse into the fashionable society of Paris during the late 19th century, showcasing the esthetics and cultural significance of the time. The woman's presence in the sculpture gallery, surrounded by ancient Greek statues, underscores the appreciation for art and history that was an integral part of French culture during this period.
