EDITORS COMMENTS
is an exquisitely detailed black and white illustration taken from "The Etiquette of To-Day," a publication edited by Flora Klickmann and published by the Girls Own Paper in 1914. This image captures the essence of an elegant and glamorous couple, dressed in their finest evening attire, as they arrive for a dinner engagement during the early 1910s. The scene is set against the backdrop of the tumultuous period of the First World War, which had begun just a few years prior in 1914. Despite the looming shadow of conflict, the couple's focus is on the refined social graces and etiquette that defined the era. The woman, with an air of sophistication and grace, holds a delicate fan in one hand and a small bouquet of flowers in the other. Her husband, equally dapper in his formal attire, offers her his arm as they step out of a horse-drawn carriage, ready to enter the grand estate where their engagement awaits. The illustration, with its intricate details and attention to fashion, offers a glimpse into the world of high society during the 1910s. The elegant couple's attire, with its flowing lines and luxurious fabrics, reflects the opulence and grandeur of the time. The image serves as a reminder of the contrasting worlds that existed during this period - one of refinement and elegance, and the other of war and conflict. Flora Klickmann, a renowned etiquette expert and author, oversaw the creation of "The Etiquette of To-Day," ensuring that the publication provided accurate and up-to-date guidance on social graces and manners for the modern woman. This illustration, with its timeless beauty and intricate details, remains a testament to the enduring allure of the era and the importance of etiquette in shaping societal norms.
