EDITORS COMMENTS
This design for an evening bag by Paul Louchet, dated around 1905, showcases the elegance and intricacy of Art Nouveau aesthetics. The bag, rendered in graphite, watercolour, and ink on cardboard, features a gilded silver bracket that serves as a stylish and sturdy handle. The bracket is adorned with delicate floral patterns, reminiscent of the low countries' rich cultural heritage. Tie ribbons, also gilded, gracefully drape from the bag, adding a playful and feminine touch. The design exudes an air of opulence, with its jewelled accents and gold gilt detailing. This exquisite piece, a testament to the artistic vision of its creator, Paul Louchet, would have graced the evening attire of a well-heeled woman during the early 20th century. The Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands, houses this remarkable artifact as part of its extensive European art collection, inviting us to explore the history and beauty of this bygone era.
