1800s 1810s Morning Pelisse Puffed Sleeves Solitaire Fashionable Games
EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming early 19th century print captures the elegant pastime of four fashionable ladies as they engage in a game of solitaire. Dressed in the height of fashion from the 1800s, perhaps around the 1810s, these women display an air of leisure and refinement as they focus intently on their cards. The first lady on the left wears a dress with a high waistline, a long, flowing skirt, and puffed sleeves. Her pelisse, a fashionable outer garment, is adorned with intricate embroidery and a fur collar, adding an extra layer of warmth and sophistication. The second lady, seated in the middle, dons a similar high-waisted dress with puffed sleeves and a pelisse, but her outfit features a striking pattern of vertical stripes. The third lady, on the right, wears a simple yet elegant gown with a fitted bodice and long, straight sleeves. Her hair is styled in an elaborate chignon, and she wears a delicate necklace and earrings. The fourth lady, who appears to be serving as the dealer, is dressed in a similar high-waisted gown with puffed sleeves and a pelisse, but her outfit features a bold floral print. The ladies' attire reflects the fashion trends of the early 19th century, with an emphasis on puffed sleeves, high waistlines, and pelisses. Their focus on the solitaire game demonstrates the popularity of indoor pastimes for women during this period, as well as their ability to enjoy leisurely activities in stylish and fashionable clothing.
