English fashion plates from 1805, and French fashion plates from Year 13 (1804-1805) of the French Republican Calendar. All images come from the collection of the Bibliothèque des Arts Décoratifs. www.lesartsdecoratifs.fr/francais/bibliotheque/ PLEASE ATTRIBUTE THESE IMAGES TO THE BIBLIOTHÈQUE DES ARTS DÉCORATIFS. At a minimum, please link back to this Flickr set. The online collection features very high resolution photographs of multiple fashion plates. I have cropped and saved these pictures into individual fashion plates. The original images may be accessed as follows: 1. On the main webpage, select "Consultation du catalogue" in the left menu. 2. Select "recherche simple". 3. To search: a) In the "Termes de recherche" box, Type "modes". b) Under "Documents numérisés," check "Album Maciet". c) Click "RECHERCHER." The search will bring up a menu of categories for images, organized by time period. Select a category by clicking the blue number to the left. Then choose "Voir les vignettes Maciet" on the right to bring up thumbnails of all images in that particular category. Clicking a thumbnail opens up a zoom window that's amazingly powerful. PLEASE ATTRIBUTE THESE IMAGES TO THE BIBLIOTHÈQUE DES ARTS DÉCORATIFS AND/OR TO THIS FLICKR COLLECTION.
