Le noeud rouge 1860s

"Le noeud rouge" (The Red Bow), created in the 1860s by French photographer Pierre-Louis Pierson, is a portrait of an unnamed woman dressed in a lavish gown. The woman's elaborate hairstyle and the grand design of her dress, featuring a striking red bow, capture the fashion trends of the era. This photograph is a testament to Pierson's skill as a portrait artist and his ability to convey the elegance and sophistication of his subject.
