EDITORS COMMENTS
Au temps des lilas" (In the Time of Lilacs), captures the essence of the 1920s jazz age with this stunning lithograph depicting a woman in a fancy dress costume as a lilac flower. The image, created using pochoir stencil handcoloring, is a masterpiece from Our Fancy Dress Costumes, a Parisian publication from 1928. The woman in the illustration wears an exquisite lilac-colored bodice, adorned with intricate floral patterns that mimic the delicate petals of the lilac flower. Her hat is a magnificent creation, topped with a lilac bloom and adorned with lilac leaves and beads, adding to the overall enchanting effect. The woman's face is framed by a cascade of curls, her eyes sparkling with the joy and excitement of a masquerade party. The background is a blur of color and movement, suggesting the energy and vibrancy of the era. The title "Au temps des lilas" adds a poetic touch to the image, evoking the fleeting beauty of spring and the ephemeral nature of the jazz age. This artwork is a testament to the creativity and artistry of Maurice Bouchor, the renowned French painter and illustrator, who expertly captured the spirit of the times. The lithograph, with its intricate details and vivid colors, is a captivating reminder of the historical significance of the 1920s and the cultural trends that defined the era. It is a must-have for anyone interested in the history of fashion, art, or the jazz age.
