EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored pochoir (stencil) etching captures the essence of early 20th century elegance and sophistication. The image features a woman dressed in a stunning blue wool velvet robe and long jacket, adorned with a checkerboard velvet pattern. The ensemble is reminiscent of the fashionable tea gowns and long jackets popular during the Belle Époque and Art Deco periods. The woman's dress, with its aubergine undertones and peacock eye pattern, exudes an air of mystery and allure. She accessorizes the outfit with a turban-style headpiece, adorned with a plume and aigrette, adding a touch of exoticism and orientalism. The woman's graceful pose and the use of props such as a tea cup and saucer further emphasize the relaxed and refined atmosphere of the scene. The image is an illustration from Tommaso Antongini's Journal des Dames et des Modes, published in Paris in 1912. Antongini's journal was known for its high-quality fashion plates, which often featured designs inspired by the ballets Russes and the chic Parisian scene. The intricate detail and vibrant colors of this etching are a testament to the skill and artistry of the time. The woman's dress and long jacket, with their rich blue hue and distinctive checkerboard pattern, are reminiscent of the lophophore, or the "grasping organ," of a deep-sea dwelling creature, adding an element of the natural world to the image. This unique combination of fashion, art, and nature makes this pochoir etching a truly captivating work of art from the past.
