EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Lady pulling up her stocking" transports us back to the elegant world of 18th-century France. Engraved by Le Beau and colored by Le Clerc, this exquisite piece is a true testament to the artistry of the time. The image showcases a lady in traditional costume delicately adjusting her stocking. Her attire exudes sophistication and style, with plumed hat adorned with feathers, draped overskirt made of luxurious taffeta, and meticulously detailed stockings. Every element of her clothing reflects the fashionable trends of the era. The illustration captures not only fashion but also the essence of daily life during that period. The garter she wears adds a touch of intimacy and reveals an intimate moment frozen in time. Le Polonoise, as depicted here, was a popular style during the 18th century characterized by its draped overskirt and distinctive silhouette. This print serves as both an artistic representation and historical documentation of these fashions. With its intricate details and masterful engraving technique, this print from Galeries des Modes et Costumes Francais truly brings to life the elegance and allure that defined 18th-century French fashion. It is a remarkable addition to any collection or display dedicated to celebrating this golden age of clothing design.
