1820s Hand Coloured Engraving On Paper Le Matin Morning Morning Dress Purse Purses Hand Tinted Ladieswear Womens Wear Womenswear

EDITORS COMMENTS
This fashion plate, created in 1824, showcases an elegant young woman dressed in the height of 19th century morning fashion. The full-length engraving, hand-colored on paper, exudes an air of refinement and sophistication. The young woman dons a morning dress, a lighter and less formal version of an evening gown, designed for daytime wear. The dress, featuring a high waistline and a full, voluminous skirt, is adorned with intricate floral patterns and a subtle pink hue, adding to its feminine charm. Accessories play a crucial role in completing the outfit. A small, delicate hat with a rose adornment sits atop her head, shielding her from the sun. A matching rose is also held in her hand, adding a touch of natural beauty to the scene. A fashionable purse, slung over her arm, completes the ensemble. The fashion plate, titled "Le Matin," was likely published in Britain, as evidenced by the English influence on the design. It is currently housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), a testament to its historical significance and enduring appeal. This artwork offers a glimpse into the fashion trends of the time, providing a window into the lives of young women in the 1820s.
