EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning engraving, titled "Homme de Qualité en Habit d'Espée" (Gentleman in the Sworded Habit), is a captivating representation of seventeenth-century French fashion as depicted in the Recueil des modes de la cour de France (Gallery of Modes of the French Court) by Jean de Dieu. Created in 1683, this hand-colored engraving on paper showcases the opulence and grandeur of the French court during this period. The subject of the image is a man of high standing, dressed in the latest fashion. He wears a sworded habit, a distinctive garment that was popular among the French nobility. The man's hat, adorned with a feather and ribbons, adds to his regal appearance. The rich maroon color of his clothing and the intricate details of the fabric, as well as the hat, are beautifully rendered in the engraving. The image is a testament to the importance of fashion and the role it played in expressing one's social status during this era. The intricate details of the clothing and the use of color demonstrate the wealth and affluence of the French court. The engraving, created by Jean de Dieu, is a valuable piece of heritage art that provides a glimpse into the fashion and culture of seventeenth-century France. Today, this engraving is part of the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it is preserved and displayed for the enjoyment and education of the public. The image continues to captivate viewers with its intricate details, vibrant colors, and historical significance.
