This anonymous fashion plate from 1826, titled "Petit Courrier des Dames," depicts a man in the latest Parisian fashion, standing with a young boy. The man wears a blue jacket with large lapels, a white cravat, a pale beige waistcoat, and light-colored trousers. He holds a top hat in his left hand. The young boy, perhaps a page or servant, is dressed in a similar style, with a blue jacket and white trousers. The image, part of the series "Modes de Paris," provides a glimpse into the sartorial trends of the era, capturing the elegant, refined styles favored by Parisian society.
