EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning full-length fashion plate, created by renowned English publisher Rudolph Ackermann in 1822, showcases an elegant walking dress of the Regency era. The Empire gown, characterized by its high waistline and full, voluminous skirt, is adorned with intricate floral patterns, adding a pop of color to the monochromatic palette of the period. The long-sleeved dress is accessorized with a matching pelisse, a short, fitted jacket, and a bonnet with a large, flowing bow. The fashionable woman in this engraving is depicted carrying a parasol, a must-have accessory for protecting one's complexion during outdoor promenades. She also carries an umbrella, suggesting the unpredictable weather of the British Isles. The hand-colored engraving on paper captures the fine details of the dress, from the delicate lace trim to the intricate embroidery. This fashion plate, a testament to the elegance and sophistication of women's wear during the Regency era, is a valuable addition to any collection of historic fashion or art. The image, held in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and craftsmanship of the clothing of the time.
