EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning folding fan from the 1780s, adorned with intricate "grisaille" scenes. Created by an unknown artist in the 18th century, this exquisite piece is made of double silk leaf, brass, metallic thread, bone or ivory, gilding, mother-of-pearl and paste gems. With dimensions measuring 27.3x51.4 cm, it resides in the Dallas Museum of Art in Texas as part of The Wendy and Emery Reves Collection. The fan features a mesmerizing combination of figures and ornate decorations that transport us to another era. Delicately painted ships sail across the scene while elegantly dressed women and men engage in mysterious encounters. Every detail on this accessory exudes sophistication and charm. Folding fans like these were not only fashionable accessories but also decorative pieces that added flair to any outfit or setting. They were symbols of elegance and refinement during their time. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' excellent photography skills, we can now appreciate every intricate detail captured in this print without mentioning any commercial use restrictions.
