EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-colored engraving on paper, titled "Recueil des modes de la cour de France, 'Crieur d'Eau de Vie'" and created by Henri Bonnart around 1703-1704, offers a captivating glimpse into the fashionable world of 18th century France. The image depicts a male figure dressed in the latest trends of the time, proudly displaying a flask of Eau de Vie (Water of Life) on a basket balanced on his head. The man, identified as a 'Crieur d'Eau de Vie' or street vendor, wears a voluminous coat with a richly textured fabric and a vibrant color palette, reflecting the opulence and elegance of the Baroque era. The intricate lettering on the flask adds a touch of sophistication to the scene, while the detailed rendering of the man's face and posture conveys a sense of confidence and pride in his profession. This historic artwork, now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, provides a fascinating insight into the clothing and occupations of the French court during the early 18th century. The intricate design and attention to detail make it a valuable addition to any collection of historic fashion and art.
