EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Young Woman in Yachting Attire, Gazing Through a Telescope: A Fashionable Moment in the Belle Époque and Art Deco Eras This image captures the essence of fashionable leisure during the Belle Époque and Art Deco eras, as depicted in this pochoir (stencil) etching from Tommaso Antongini's Journal des Dames et des Modes, published in Paris in 1914. The young woman, dressed in the height of yachting style, dons a chic outfit consisting of a draped dress, a toile skirt, and a leather hat. The wool cape, draped elegantly over her shoulders, adds an extra layer of warmth and sophistication to her ensemble. With a youthful and vibrant expression, she holds a telescope, her gaze fixed intently on the horizon. The image exudes an aura of both adventure and elegance, as if she is about to embark on a thrilling journey across the sea. The intricate handcoloured details of the pochoir etching further enhance the allure of this fashionable scene. This image is reminiscent of the Orientalist influences that permeated the art and fashion of the time, as well as the influence of the Ballets Russes. The woman's pose and the overall composition of the image evoke the grace and charm of a young dancer, poised and ready for her performance. The Parisian chic and the spirit of the times are beautifully encapsulated in this fashion plate. The image is a testament to the enduring allure of the yachting lifestyle and the fashionable trends of the early 20th century. It is a glimpse into a bygone era, where elegance, adventure, and the thrill of the sea came together to create a moment of timeless beauty.
