EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite engraving, titled "Femme de Qualité en Deshabillé d'Este" by Jean de Dieu, dates back to the 17th century and is a captivating representation of the affluence and fashionable trends during the reign of Louis XIV in France. The image, part of the Recueil des modes de la cour de France collection, showcases a wealthy woman in a summer season deshabillé, or dressing gown, inspired by the Italian duchess of Este. The woman, depicted standing with a fan in hand, is dressed in a vibrant and colorful ensemble. Her headdress, adorned with feathers and ribbons, complements her elegant and intricately designed robe. The hand-colored engraving on paper captures the rich textures and details of her clothing, from the delicate lace trim to the voluminous sleeves. The image is a testament to the importance of fashion in the royal court during this period, with the latest styles and trends setting the standard for the European aristocracy. The woman's refined appearance and the use of naturalistic colors and shading in the engraving reflect the artistic and cultural heritage of the time. This handheld work of art, now preserved at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), provides a glimpse into the opulence and elegance of the French court during the seventeenth century. The image invites us to appreciate the intricacies of fashion history and the enduring allure of the art of the past.
