EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a market lady selling her wares, beautifully engraved by Dupin. Plate no. 5 from Galeries des Modes et Costumes Francais, dating back to c. 1778-87, showcases the intricate details of traditional dress and costume during the 18th century. In this vibrant illustration, we witness a fashionable woman adorned in a simple yet elegant gown, complemented by an exquisite headgear and hat. She stands proudly as a seller of fashions, embodying the spirit of a diligent trader in bustling markets. The artist's skillful rendering brings to life every element of her attire - from the flowing hood and cloak that gracefully drape around her figure to the box containing her precious merchandise. A fan delicately held in her hand adds an air of sophistication to this working woman's ensemble. Le Clerc's masterful interpretation after Pierre Thomas further enhances our appreciation for this remarkable piece. The Private Collection it belongs to is fortunate to house such a timeless representation of French fashion history. As we gaze upon this enchanting engraving courtesy of Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back in time; witnessing not only the craftsmanship involved but also gaining insight into how women played vital roles as entrepreneurs even centuries ago.
