EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a woman's costume during the reign of William and Mary from 1689 to 1702. The image, captured by Dion Clayton Calthrop in 1907, beautifully depicts the fashion trends of that era. The woman is seen wearing an open front-laced gown with high sleeves and deep cuffs, reflecting the elegant style prevalent during this period. Accompanying her attire is a black silk pinner, adding a touch of sophistication to her ensemble. Her hair is styled in a high commode frame, emphasizing the height and grandeur of her appearance. Topping off her look is a tall fontage cap, which adds an air of regality to her overall presentation. Calthrop's illustration not only captures the intricacies of this historical costume but also provides valuable insights into seventeenth-century British fashion. The attention to detail in his drawing highlights how clothing played an essential role in expressing one's social status and cultural identity during this time. With its rich history and influence on modern-day fashion, this image serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of European style. It offers viewers a glimpse into the past while reminding us that clothing has always been more than mere garments; it is an art form that reflects society's values and aspirations throughout different periods. Published by Adam & Charles Black in London, this artwork stands as part of Calthrop's larger body of work titled "English Costume". Its inclusion within Bridgeman Images' collection allows for wider access to appreciate and study these significant historical artifacts without commercial intent or use being mentioned.
