Manufacture Royale de Corsets. 1897.
In a graphic and lithographic tour de force, Livemont creates a lush riot of ornamentation, from the marquee archway to the floral wallpaper and lilies at lower left, to the fabulous adornment of the model's flame-haired tresses—all contrasting with the rigidity of control in the corset and in the vertical spine of crowns to the left. As a visual metaphor for the fine intricacy involved in corset construction, it's never been surpassed.
