About this work

Woman with a ball on a ribbon in her right hand, playing with a monkey on a chain. She wears a 'Lévite' (jacket-dress) with a skirt in a contrasting color; the sleeves in the same color as the skirt. The 'Lévite' has, like the 'Circassienne', only cuffs (?) and instead of a scarf, a ribbon as a belt. On her head a black hat according to the latest fashion. Further accessories: knotted neckerchief, shoes. Print from the series dd. 28th Cahier de Costumes Français, 22nd Suite d'Habillemens à la mode in 1780, Gallerie des Modes et Costumes Français.
