Furnishings and Interiors

The very first fashion magazine, the Cabinet des Modes (1785-1797), had occasionally also published pictures of new furniture or an interior to alternate with the fashions.

Some editions came with supplements consisting of an insert of four or five croquis (sketches) depicting modern interiors:
