EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the essence of early 20th century femininity and elegance. The woman, dressed in a stunning floral taffeta gown, exudes grace and sophistication as she reclines on a silk ottoman. Her tulle hat adorned with a playful cockatoo adds a whimsical touch to her ensemble. The intricate details of her outfit are highlighted in this handcoloured pochoir (stencil) etching, which was based on an illustration from Tommaso Antongini's Journal des Dames et des Modes, published in Paris in 1913. The woman's robe de taffetas a fleurs is a timeless piece, featuring a collar and cuffs of linen, a satin gilet, and enamel buttons. The dress, in a graceful grey color, is adorned with delicate floral patterns, adding to its ethereal beauty. The woman's manchettes, or long sleeves, are made of linon, and her boutons, or buttons, are demail, or mother-of-pearl. The setting of the image further enhances its charm, with the woman seated beneath a willow tree, surrounded by the natural beauty of the outdoors. The Art Deco and Belle Epoque influences are evident in the ornate design and the Orientalist motifs, which were popular during this period. The image also reflects the influence of the Ballets Russes, as well as the chic fashion trends of Parisian society at the time. This pochoir etching is a beautiful example of the intricate and detailed fashion illustrations that were popular during the early 1900s. It offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of elegance, grace, and timeless beauty.
