EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 18th century print, titled "Fille de la Charité Servant les Malades" by Henri Bonnart, offers a captivating glimpse into the world of French fashion during the Baroque era. Dated between 1703 and 1704, the hand-colored engraving on paper depicts a compassionate woman in the role of a charity worker, dressed in the contemporary attire of the time. The woman is shown wearing a voluminous, high-waisted apron dress, adorned with intricate floral patterns and vibrant colors. Her apron, a symbol of her dedication to caring for the sick, is filled with various items used in nursing, including a bucket and a hamper. The woman's hair is styled in an elegant chignon, and she wears a lace cap, adding to the refined appearance of her outfit. The print, part of the renowned Recueil des modes de la cour de France collection, is a testament to the exquisite detail and craftsmanship of the time. The use of color and the meticulous shading in the engraving bring the image to life, transporting us back to the opulent courts of Paris during the early 18th century. The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) is fortunate to house this historic piece of art, which not only provides valuable insight into the fashion trends of the time but also offers a window into the daily lives of the people during this era. This image of a woman in charitable service, dressed in the latest French fashion, is a reminder of the enduring beauty and rich history of the Baroque period.
