Petit Courrier des Dames'Modes de Paris' Pair of Hand Coloured Etchings, 1850    Petit Courrier des Dames'Modes de Paris' Pair of Hand Coloured Etchings, 1850
A pair of original hand coloured etchings from the French magazine'Petit Courrier de Dames, Journal des Modes'. Below the illustrations are the issue date - 23rd June 1850 & 4th August 1850, along with the print number - 2517 & 2524. The original artist is believed to be Hippolyte Damours. These high-quality prints were created by the original artist etching onto a metal plate, making use of the stipple engraving technique to create freely drawn lines, almost resembling an ink sketch. The etched plate was then used to transfer the image onto paper, which was then coloured by hand.

The Petis Courrier des Dames magazine was a successful Parisian publication largely devoted to dress for women. It's plates were imported for Townsend's Monthly Selection of Parisian Costumes, making them the first french plates to be found in Britain, and for The Queen in the 1860s. Both prints have been trimmed and are in a gilded press moulded wooden frame with a glass pane, ready for hanging. Print dimensions: 22.5 x 17.25 cm.

Frame dimensions: 24 x 18.5 cm. This item is in the category "Art\Art Prints".
