EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored illustration, titled "Hunter at the Time of Charles IX of France," showcases a nobleman in the elegant attire of the late 16th century. The hunter is depicted with a horn, dagger, and short spear, embodying the spirit of the French monarch's court. His attire is a stunning display of opulence and refinement, consisting of a slashed gold doublet, a golden hat adorned with intricate designs, a green shirt, and matching breeches. The doublet, with its deep V-neckline and voluminous sleeves, is a testament to the intricate tailoring techniques of the time. The golden hat, known as a "bonnet de chasse," is a symbol of the hunter's status and privilege. The green shirt and breeches, worn beneath the doublet, add a touch of practicality to the ensemble. The illustration, created by the skilled hands of E. Lechevallier-Chevignard and masterfully lithographed by A. Didier, L. Flameng, and F. Laguillermie, is an exquisite example of the historical costumes featured in Georges Duplessis's seminal work, "Costumes historiques des XVIe, XVIIe et XVIIIe siecles," published in Paris in 1867. This illustration offers a fascinating glimpse into the fashion and history of the French Renaissance court.
