    Very attractive pair of 18th-century engravings depicting two elegant women with fashionable hairstyles. These engravings come from the magazine "Le Cabinet des Modes ou les Modes Nouvelles", which featured clothing, jewelry and silverware. All the plates for these magazines were engraved by Duhamel, after drawings by Leclerc, Desrais, Pugin, Duhamel, and two artists identified by their initials: I.L.A. and L. Le Cabinet des Modes was the first French fashion magazine published regularly. This pair of engravings depicts the hairstyles of two women: the first has an ingénue hairstyle, with a straw hat and a large feather. A blue shawl, held in place by a jewel in front, is placed around the hat. The woman is wearing earrings. The second engraving shows a hairstyle known as a Hedgehog, with hooks and flowers at the top. Both of these engravings depict women wearing Rose Bertin's hairstyles. Marie-Jeanne Bertin, known as Rose Bertin, was a clothing merchant. Marie-Antoinette, the young queen of France, made her her "fashion minister". Pair of engravings - France - 18th century
