Journal des Luxus und der Moden 1786, Band I, T. 29 1786

This 1786 fashion plate from "Journal des Luxus und der Moden" by Friedrich Justin Bertuch illustrates a woman in the latest fashions of the time. The woman is shown in profile, wearing a white dress with a pink sash and a large, feathered hat. She holds a walking stick in her right hand, a common accessory for fashionable women of the period. This print is a fine example of the detailed engravings and hand-coloring used to depict fashion trends in 18th-century Europe.
