Antique Revue de la Mode French Ladies of Paris Illustration Embellished with Fabric in Shadow Box by P. Deferneville of Paris

This this is a Beautiful, Vintage illustrations of Parisian women in dresses designed in the French Edwardian style, are hand-colored engravings and then were embellished at some point with fabric upon the bodies and heads of the figures (usually a hat or earrings). 

It is my understanding that these fashion prints are from a well-known fashion magazine, published in the late 1800's. This issue featured a description of the Victorian fashions and the related accessories. The print was hand colored and inserted into the magazine along with a description of the fashions. The embellishing of the figures in the three pieces offered here creates a 3D type image in the shadow box. The embellishment presents the women in long bustled skirts, ruffles, draping and accessories. The gold-colored octagon wooden frame shadow boxes and glass. The hanging mechanism is a hook. The engraving with first lady is with a blue and white in a striped gown. The second lady with purple and white flowered lace gown. The shadow box has the words Revue De La Mode under both ladies and off to the left, 15th(e) Annee_1886. above it states Paris_ imp. (e) de la Revue de la Mode. On the bottom right it is No. 768 and above the signature of the artist or designer P. Deferneville. This shadow box is in Radiant and Elegant. Excellent condition, No damage
