EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the essence of fashionable attire for a young French nobleman in the year of revolution, 1789. The elegant gentleman is dressed in the height of fashion for his time, showcasing an exquisite ensemble that reflects the opulence and sophistication of the Ancien Régime. The young nobleman wears a richly textured and hue velvet jacket, its deep burgundy color contrasting sharply against the pristine white of his shirt and cravat. The jacket is adorned with gold buttons and intricate embroidery, reflecting the wealth and status of its wearer. A matching waistcoat, also in velvet, is worn beneath the jacket, its gold buttons aligning perfectly with those on the jacket. The nobleman's breeches are of a lighter shade, a subtle contrast to the jacket and waistcoat, and are held up by a pair of elegant buckled leather garter belts. His legs are encased in high-topped, buckled shoes, while his feet are swathed in silk stockings. The young man completes his outfit with a tricorn hat, its wide brim angled to one side, and a silk cravat, expertly tied in the latest fashion. His hair is styled in the popular "à la Titus" fashion, swept back from his forehead and held in place with powder and pomade. This image offers a glimpse into the world of the French nobility on the cusp of revolution, a time of opulence and extravagance that would soon be swept away by the tide of change. The young nobleman's impeccably tailored attire serves as a reminder of the grandeur and elegance of the Ancien Régime, a time that would forever be etched in history.
