La Frayeur, 1861-67 - A Captivating Glimpse into Aristocratic Elegance
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print titled "La Frayeur" taken between 1861 and 1867, we are transported back to the enchanting world of 19th-century aristocracy. Created by Pierre-Louis Pierson and an unknown artist, this image beautifully captures the essence of a bygone era. The focal point of the photograph is Countess Virginia Oldoini Verasis di Castiglione, a renowned Italian aristocrat known for her beauty and charm. Dressed in an exquisite crinoline gown with a hoop skirt that accentuates her graceful silhouette, she exudes elegance and sophistication. With hand-coloured details highlighting every intricate fold of fabric, the Countess stands amidst a lush grapevine backdrop. The symbolism of grapes evokes notions of abundance, luxury, and opulence often associated with the aristocracy. However, there is an intriguing twist to this image - as suggested by its title "La Frayeur" meaning fright or fear in French. The Countess's expression reveals a hint of trepidation or unease; perhaps she has encountered something unexpected during her leisurely stroll through the countryside. This photograph not only showcases the fashion trends prevalent during that time but also offers us a glimpse into the complex emotions experienced by individuals within high society. It serves as a reminder that even those living seemingly perfect lives can be touched by moments of vulnerability. Preserved at The Metropolitan Museum of Art as part of our rich heritage from centuries past, "La Frayeur" continues to captivate viewers with its timeless allure.
