EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph, created by R.V. after an illustration by Francois Courboin from Octave Uzanne's Fashion in Paris, published in 1898, transports us back to the grandeur and elegance of The Great Longchamps Day in 1820. The scene unfolds at the renowned Longchamp racecourse in Paris, where fashionable gentlemen, dressed in top hats and tails, proudly display their canes. Their stylish attire is contrasted by the vibrant colors and intricate details of the women's fashion, with bonnets adorned with feathers, full dresses, aprons, and parasols. The panorama is filled with the excitement of the crowd, as carriages and horse-drawn vehicles line the boulevards of Montmartre and Boulogne. The atmosphere is electric, as the fashionable society of Paris gathers to witness the thrilling races. This plate, taken from Uzanne's comprehensive study on fashion during the Bourbon Restoration, offers a glimpse into the rich cultural and aesthetic values of 19th-century French society. The lithograph, reminiscent of the works of Robert Fulton, showcases the allure and charm of Parisian fashion during this period. The meticulous hand-coloring adds depth and texture to the already intricate illustrations, making this a truly captivating piece of historical art. This image serves as a testament to the enduring fascination with the fashion and culture of Paris, and the role it continues to play in shaping global aesthetics.
