EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithographic print from Albert Charles August Racinet's "Le costume historique" showcases the exquisite Costume of the Chinese Empress. The richly detailed engraving, dating back to 1876, offers a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of Chinese imperial fashion. The regal figure in this artwork is adorned in a resplendent ensemble that reflects the intricate craftsmanship and cultural symbolism of traditional Chinese attire. Every element, from the ornate headdress to the flowing robes embellished with elaborate embroidery, exudes elegance and grace. The composition not only captures the beauty of this royal costume but also provides insight into domestic life during that era. The setting features intricately designed furniture and hints at a tobacco-related activity taking place nearby. This combination adds depth to our understanding of Chinese culture at that time. Leonard de Selva's expert photography brings out every vibrant color and delicate detail present in this historical piece. Through his lens, we are transported back in time to appreciate both Racinet's artistic vision and the magnificence of Chinese heritage. As we admire this stunning portrayal of an Asian queen, it serves as a reminder of how art can transcend time, allowing us to connect with different cultures and traditions across centuries.
