EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The essay of the corset (two men and one woman with stripped breasts) - 18th engraving" takes us back to the alluring world of 18th-century France. The image, captured by Leonard de Selva, showcases an intriguing scene from that era's fashion culture. In this thought-provoking engraving, we see two men attentively observing a woman who stands before them with her bare breasts exposed. The focus is on the intricate details of their attire, particularly the corsets worn by both genders. This piece challenges societal norms and explores themes of sexuality and eroticism prevalent during that time. The French School artist behind this work skillfully captures the essence of 18th-century mode, highlighting not only fashion but also its influence on gender dynamics. The Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris houses this remarkable engraving as part of its extensive collection. Leonard de Selva's photograph allows us to appreciate this historical artwork while shedding light on a period where lingerie played a significant role in shaping society's perception of beauty and desire. It serves as a reminder that art has always been at the forefront when it comes to exploring complex human emotions and societal constructs.
