EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Vision of the Past: A Woman in Medieval Costume from Our Fancy Dress Costumes, Paris, 1928" This lithograph, hand-colored using the pochoir stencil technique, depicts a woman in an elegant medieval costume. The image, titled "Henin," is a part of the "Our Fancy Dress Costumes" collection published in Paris during the 1920s, a time of great cultural and artistic innovation. The woman in the print wears a dress reminiscent of the Middle Ages, adorned with intricate patterns and rich colors. Her gown is toned in deep shades of red and green, with a conical hat and long veils adding to the authentic medieval look. The ermine trim on the sleeves and hem adds a touch of luxury and grandeur. The pochoir stencil hand-coloring technique, popular during the early 20th century, allowed for precise and detailed color application, resulting in a visually stunning image. The woman's face is expressionless, her eyes downcast, as if lost in thought or in a trance, transported back in time. The nostalgic appeal of medieval costumes was particularly popular during the 1920s, a time of great social and cultural change. The Jazz Age brought with it a renewed interest in history and the past, and masquerade parties were a common way to explore and celebrate different eras. This print, with its intricate details and rich colors, would have been a prized possession for those seeking to bring a touch of the Middle Ages to their festivities. The image serves as a reminder of the enduring allure of the past and the power of costume to transport us to different times and places. Whether used as a decorative piece or as inspiration for a historical reenactment, this print continues to captivate and inspire.
