Jean-François Houbigant’s ads for fancy fans read like mini-stories full of lace, ladies, and Parisian gossip. He turned watercolor fans into portable art, cramming tiny dramas onto silk, think a masked ball in one flick of the wrist. Slide open Eventail plié and you’ll spot a woman in a red shawl, the whole street in 3 by 5 inches; that single fold holds more life than a whole parlor portrait.
