EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored fashion plate illustration, titled "Woman of Rouen Wearing an Elegant Bavolet," is an engraved image from Louis-Marie Lante's "Costumes des femmes du Pays de Caux," published around 1827-1885. The illustration showcases the distinctive fashion of the women from Rouen, Caux, and Normandy during that era. The woman in the illustration is dressed in a crimson gown, which is accentuated by the asymmetrical, crushed base of her bavolet, a traditional hat or bonnet worn in the region. The bavolet's elegant design is further enhanced by the intricate lace detailing, which is reminiscent of the famous Alsatian lace that was highly prized during this period. The woman's shawl, draped artfully around her shoulders, adds an air of sophistication and mystery to her appearance. The handcolored technique used in this illustration brings the image to life, making the rich reds, blacks, and whites of the woman's attire pop against the muted background. The tall, lace-trimmed hats or bonnets worn by the women of Caux and Normandy were renowned for their elegance and style. These hats, which were often adorned with ribbons, flowers, and other decorative elements, were an essential part of the regional fashion. The Woman of Rouen in this illustration embodies the grace and refinement of the women from this region, making it a fascinating glimpse into the history of women's fashion in France during the 19th century.
