La Gazette du Bon Ton (1923), Issue #4; Hand coloured pochoir print, Plate 16 for Charles Worth Co. From his very early career (see 'Coromandel'- 1913) through to the 1920 masterwork 'Le Gout des Laques' and beyond, Barbier often chose the exotic Chinese lacquered screen as the backdrop to showcase haute couture. Here the two models strike the imperious pose of the liberated, desireable (and dominant) 'Women of Style' - the "fiery ones" as the title suggests, of the fabulous 1920's. Overall Size: H.9.5in. X W.7.5in; H.24.1cm X W.19.1cm |
