The
History of Silhouettes
The art of
silhouette cutting originated in Europe in the early 1700's. Prior to the French
revolution, silhouettists were hired as an amusement for the royal class. The
featured artist would attend the many extravagant balls and cut out the
distinguished profiles of the Lords and Ladies capturing the latest fashions and
elaborate wigs.
While the
aristocrats were having their silhouettes cut out and eating like kings much of
Europe was starving, especially in France. In the 1760's the Finance Minister of
France, Etienne de Silhouette, had crippled the French people with his merciless
tax polices. Oblivious to his people's plight, Etienne was much more interested
in his hobby of cutting out paper profiles, the latest fad. Etienne de
Silhouette was so despised by the people of France that in protest the peasant s
wore only black mimicking his black paper cutouts. The saying went all over
France,"We are dressing a la Silhouette. We are shadows, too poor to wear color.
We are Silhouettes!" To this very day the black profile cutouts are called
silhouettes. Thankfully, the negative connotation no longer remains.
The art of
silhouette cutting reached its "golden age" in the 1800's. Many European
silhouettists immigrated and became very famous and rich, catering to the
American politicians and very wealthy. Others traveled to county fairs and small
towns capturing the profiles and the hearts of countless thousands of ordinary
folk. Silhouettes remain as popular today as ever. In fact, they have become one
of the most collectable art forms. Unfortunately there are only a handful of
silhouette cutters left, perhaps as few as 15 in the United States. We of the
computer age may be seeing the last generation of silhouette artists.
