About the Item
Antique French Print of Courtly Fashion, Reign of Charles V, circa 1860
Description: This captivating antique French costume print, titled “Costumes d’apparat, Règne de Charles V,” illustrates the grandeur and refined elegance of 14th-century French court attire during the reign of Charles V. Created in the 19th century and published by Pauquet Frères, this work draws inspiration from the historical research of Willemin and is part of the celebrated series "Modes et Costumes Historiques."
In the image, a noblewoman stands in a luxurious, flowing gown adorned with intricate gold floral patterns, with a contrasting yellow lining peeking through the sweeping train. Her serene expression and dignified posture perfectly capture the regal bearing of medieval noblewomen. A male courtier, dressed in a tunic featuring delicate embroidery and rich detailing, stands behind her near the battlements of a castle, adding a narrative quality and depth to the scene. The background architecture, with its stately towers and stone structures, evokes the romantic ambiance of medieval courts.
What makes this print especially fascinating is the way it blends historical accuracy with 19th-century artistic interpretation. Hand-colored in delicate pastels and highlighted with fine ink lines, the print combines the precision of historical research with the charm of antique illustration. It serves as both a striking visual piece and a window into the courtly life of medieval France, making it highly desirable for collectors of antique prints, historical costume enthusiasts, and decorators with a love for refined, classical imagery.
