Lady at her Dressing Table
In the last quarter of the 17th century, fashion prints helped disseminate trends, most of which originated at the French court. Among those portrayed here is the fontange, a towering headdress with several tiers of ribbons and lace. To complete her look, the woman applies mouches (flies) to her face. These artificial beauty marks helped conceal blemishes and scars.
