About the Item
Antique French Costume Print of a Lady of the Court, Reign of Henri III, 19th Century
Description:
This striking antique French costume print, titled “Dame de la Cour, Règne de Henri III,” offers a fascinating glimpse into the refined elegance of 16th-century French court fashion. Created by Pauquet Frères in the 19th century and inspired by an authentic painting of the period, this print belongs to the celebrated “Modes et Costumes Historiques” series that captivated collectors and decorators alike with its historical accuracy and exquisite artistry.
The illustration features a noblewoman adorned in a sumptuous pink gown with elaborate puffed sleeves and a broad ruff collar, typical of the extravagant court attire of the late Renaissance era. Her elaborately styled hair, adorned with a delicate cap and crown-like decoration, complements the grandeur of her ensemble. She holds a small fan in one hand, her gentle posture and poised expression reflecting the cultivated grace of courtly life. The rich pink of her gown contrasts beautifully with the darker undergarment, edged with a touch of gold, adding to the overall impression of luxury and refinement.
The fine linework and vibrant hand-coloring of Pauquet Frères highlight the intricate patterns and textures of the clothing, capturing the opulence of French Renaissance fashion. This print not only serves as a beautiful decorative piece but also as a window into the sophisticated world of 16th-century French nobility.
Collectors of antique prints, enthusiasts of French history, and interior decorators will find this piece to be a unique and elegant addition to their collections. It’s perfect for bringing a touch of historical grandeur and aristocratic allure to any interior space.
