EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored fashion plate illustration, titled "Costumes des femmes du Pays de Caux," showcases the elegant attire of a woman from the country festival of St. Gorgon, located near Rouen, France. Dated between 1827 and 1885, this engraved image was created by Louis-Marie Lante and published by G. Gatine. The woman is adorned in traditional clothing from the Caux and Normandy regions, renowned for their exquisite Alsatian lace hats. The tall, conical hat, or "bonnet Alsacien," is a striking feature of the woman's ensemble. The intricate lace design, which cascades down the sides and covers the brim, is a testament to the exceptional craftsmanship and artistry of the region. The hat is complemented by a simple, high-necked blouse and a full, voluminous skirt, both adorned with delicate lace trim. The woman's outfit reflects the rich history and cultural traditions of the area. The Caux and Normandy regions were known for their elegant and stylish women, who took great pride in their appearance and the intricate details of their clothing. This fashion plate provides a glimpse into the past, offering a fascinating look at the fashion trends and cultural heritage of rural France during the 19th century. The handcolored technique used in this illustration adds an extra layer of beauty and depth to the image, making it a true work of art. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring the woman and her costume to life, transporting us back in time to the country festival of St. Gorgon near Rouen.
