EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning lithograph depicts a woman in an elaborate fancy dress costume, identified as Miss Helyett, from the Parisian publication "Our Fancy Dress Costumes" of 1928. The image, created using pochoir stencil handcoloring, showcases the woman's elegant attire, which includes a voluminous hat adorned with feathers and ribbons, a long, fitted coat with intricate beading, a tartan skirt, and a comic operetta-inspired bodice. The overall effect is one of glamour and sophistication, reflecting the jazz age and the trend towards elaborate costumes for masquerade parties during the 1920s. The design is attributed to Edmond Audran, a well-known French composer and librettist who was active during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His works often featured elaborate costumes and grand productions, making him an appropriate choice for a publication focused on fancy dress costumes. The use of pochoir stencil handcoloring adds an additional layer of detail and visual interest to the print, with each element carefully colored by hand to create a vibrant and eye-catching image. The overall effect is reminiscent of the nostalgic charm of the twenties, transporting us back to a time of glamour, excitement, and artistic innovation.
