EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Woman in Fancy Dress Costume as a Fountain, Le Jet d'Eau," is a stunning example of the creative and whimsical costumes that defined the Roaring Twenties. The image, created as part of the "Our Fancy Dress Costumes" series published in Paris in 1928, showcases a woman transforming into a fountain, with the iconic Le Jet d'Eau jet of water gushing from her back. The woman's costume is a marvel in itself, featuring a voluminous silver skirt that cascades down like the water of a fountain. Her top is adorned with intricate beadwork and ribbons, while a shawl draped over her shoulders adds an air of elegance. A hat with a tall, conical shape completes the outfit, reminiscent of the popular styles of the era. The lithograph was created using the pochoir stencil technique, which involved applying color to the image by hand using a brush. This meticulous process resulted in the vibrant and detailed colors that bring the image to life. The image captures the spirit of the 1920s, a time of artistic innovation, cultural experimentation, and the rise of jazz music and dance. The woman's costume represents the playful and imaginative nature of fancy dress parties, where guests would don elaborate costumes to celebrate and let their creativity shine. This lithograph is not only a beautiful work of art but also a historical artifact that transports us back to a bygone era. It offers a glimpse into the fashion trends, artistic styles, and cultural sensibilities of the 1920s, making it a valuable addition to any collection of vintage images or costume history.
