This hand-colored lithograph, "Journal des Dames et des Demoiselles," by Jules David, is a fashion illustration from 1872. It depicts two women in a garden setting, showcasing the latest Parisian fashions. The woman on the left, seated in a wicker chair, wears a white dress with lace trim and a large hat, while the woman on the right, standing, sports a blue and gray dress with a bustle and a smaller hat. This illustration, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to the evolving styles of the 19th century and offers a glimpse into the world of fashion during the Second Empire.
