EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-colored engraving on paper, titled "Recueil des modes de la cour de France, 'Lieutenant aux Gardes'" and created by Henri Bonnart in the early 18th century, offers a captivating glimpse into the fashion and military culture of France during the Baroque era. The image depicts a lieutenant in the French guards, elegantly dressed in the latest fashion, standing next to a carriage adorned with gold and intricate embroidery. The lieutenant's uniform is a testament to the opulence and intricacy of the time. His coat, with its red and gold color palette and ornate silver buttons, is embroidered with intricate designs, as is his waistcoat and breeches. His shoes, known as carriage boots, are also embellished with gold and feature a high, pointed toe. The lieutenant's wig, which was a common fashion accessory for men during this period, is styled in the latest fashion with a center part and a tall, curled front. The lettering at the bottom of the image, written in elegant script, identifies the subject as a lieutenant in the French guards. The image is part of a larger collection of fashion plates, known as "Recueil des modes de la cour de France," which was published in Paris between 1700 and 1715. This historic artwork, now held at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), provides a fascinating insight into the fashion, culture, and military traditions of France during the Baroque era. The intricate details and beautiful colors of the image make it a must-see for anyone interested in fashion history, art, or the history of armed forces.
