About the Item

This lithograph features a finely detailed illustration of a woman dressed in late 19th-century fashion, specifically from the year 1889. The attire shown includes a full-length gown characterized by puffed sleeves, a high neckline, and intricate lace detailing. The woman is portrayed in profile, highlighting the elegant drape and the fitted waist of the dress, accentuated by a sash. The color palette consists of muted pastels, which complement the formal and refined style of the period. The lithograph was produced by L. Michau, a noted publisher during the late 19th century. This illustration is likely part of a larger series or collection focusing on fashion and attire, possibly created for the Exposition Universelle of 1889 held in Paris. The presence of the "Exposition Universelle 1889" stamp suggests this work was specifically associated with that international event, which was known for showcasing advancements in art, culture, and industry. The artwork is a lithograph, a popular printing technique in the 19th century that involved drawing with a greasy substance on a flat stone or metal plate, then treating the plate to retain the image with ink while repelling water. This allowed for the creation of high-quality, detailed prints, especially useful for fashion plates and other illustrated works.
