The Difficult Choice

EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating handcoloured pochoir (stencil) etching by Maire, based on an illustration by George Barbier from Tommaso Antongini's Journal des Dames et des Modes, published in Paris in 1912. This exquisite work of art depicts a fashionable woman in the midst of making a difficult decision, surrounded by an array of elegant outfits and accessories. The scene takes place in a luxurious salon, with the woman standing before a full-length mirror, contemplating the various options before her. The morning sunlight streams in through the curtains, casting a warm glow over the room. One possible outfit includes a striped skirt and a laced blouse, while another features a voluminous lace dress. A bonnet sits atop a nearby chair, adding a touch of sophistication to the ensemble. The woman's expression is thoughtful and deliberate, as she weighs the pros and cons of each option. A bird perched on a nearby sill adds a whimsical touch to the scene, while the orientalist decor of the room and the Parisian details, such as the Ballets Russes costumes and the Chic Parisiens in the background, add to the Art Deco and Belle Epoque atmosphere. This pochoir etching is a stunning example of the intricate and detailed illustrations that were popular during this time period. The handcolouring adds depth and richness to the image, making it a true work of art. The Difficult Choice is a must-have for any collection of fashion illustrations or Art Deco and Belle Epoque art. It is a reminder of the elegance and sophistication of the past, and the enduring allure of the fashion industry.
