An elegant matched pair of vintage French historical costume prints after the renowned 19th-century illustrator Hippolyte (Hip.) Paquet, beautifully presented in richly carved oval hardwood frames featuring an intricate fruit-and-foliage motif.
These finely detailed fashion illustrations celebrate iconic European court dress and depict:
* Noble Dame de Venise (Noble Lady of Venice), after the works of the celebrated 17th-century engraver Abraham Bosse
* Elizabeth, Reine d’Angleterre (Queen Elizabeth I of England)
The prints bear the printed “Hip. Paquet” attribution and retain their original J.J. Kormann & Son, Roanoke, Virginia framing labels on the reverse, adding provenance and vintage authenticity. The warm, dark carved frames, softly aged paper, and muted hand-colored appearance create a refined Old World aesthetic that complements both traditional and collected interiors.
Whether displayed together as a pair or incorporated into a gallery wall, these timeless pieces add European sophistication to libraries, studies, bedrooms, hallways, and formal living spaces.
