EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting pochoir (stencil) etching captures the essence of summer elegance and the whimsical charm of the Belle Epoque era. The image features a woman in a robe de style Robert, or retroussis, dressed in a ruched chiffon dress and a matching coat. She accessorizes her outfit with a wide-brimmed hat adorned with a ribbon, a parasol, and a pair of fashionable mousseline white gloves. The woman delicately cradles an orange butterfly in her hand, adding a playful touch to the scene. The illustration is an exquisite hand-colored reproduction of an original work by Gerda Wegener, published in Tommaso Antongini's Journal des Dames et des Modes in Paris in 1914. The Art Deco design showcases the woman's refined beauty and the opulence of the Parisian high society. The use of vibrant colors and intricate details in the stencil etching further accentuates the allure of the fashion plate. The woman's outfit embodies the Orientalist influences prevalent in the Belle Epoque, with the ruched dress and coat evoking the soft, flowing lines of traditional Eastern garments. The overall effect is one of timeless elegance and grace, transporting us back to a bygone era of lavish garden parties and ballet performances by the Ballets Russes.
