EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured lithograph, titled "The Young Englishwoman, 1871" is a true gem from the late 19th century. Created by an unknown artist and featured in the British women's magazine The Young Englishwoman, this fashion plate showcases the latest French styles that were all the rage in Britain during that time. The young woman depicted exudes elegance and sophistication as she stands gracefully in her fashionable attire. Her full-length dress with a bustle accentuates her feminine silhouette, while her bonnet adds a touch of charm to her ensemble. The vibrant colours bring life to the image, particularly highlighting the green hat and brown dress. Set against an interior backdrop featuring a sideboard and chair, this scene transports us back to a bygone era when ladies would gather indoors for leisurely activities such as reading books or engaging in lively conversations. It evokes nostalgia for simpler times when gossiping was done face-to-face rather than through digital screens. Published by Penguin Books Limited in London and New York in 1943 as part of James Laver's book "Fashions and Fashion Plates 1800-1900" this print serves as a visual testament to the enduring allure of historical fashion trends. Its timeless appeal continues to captivate viewers today, offering glimpses into both British society at large and individual expressions of style throughout history.
