The Schleswig-Holstein Difficulty: Schleswig costumes, 1864. Creator: Unknown
The Schleswig-Holstein Difficulty: Schleswig costumes, 1864. 'Sand-eel fisher-girl of Blavand's Bay; peasant girl of Fohr in her Sunday attire; peasant woman of Ostenfeldt in her Sunday dress; milk-girl of the Dannewerk. [Peasant women]...as yet undisfigured by crinoline...the milk-girls of Schleswig adopt the yoke...peasant wife of the village of Ostenfeld, attired in her Sunday costume...many of the articles with which her person is decked are of solid silver and gold, and are so costly that they descend as heirlooms in the family for many generations...The Jutland fisher-girl...is a native of the place called Blaavands Huk (literally Blaavands Poiht)...The picturesque beauty of the unadorned costume of the maiden is sufficiently obvious to any artistic eye, so that it would be superfluous to do other than direct attention to the gipsy-like character of the figure...To this gipsy tribe the sand-eel fisher-girl of Blaavands Point is closely allied'. From "Illustrated London News", 1864

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the essence of Schleswig costumes from 1864, showcasing the unique and intricate attire worn by women in the region during that time. The image features a sand-eel fisher-girl of Blavand's Bay, a peasant girl of Fohr in her Sunday best, a milk-girl of the Dannewerk, and a peasant woman of Ostenfeldt in her traditional Sunday dress.
These women are depicted without the popular crinoline fashion trend of the era, allowing their natural beauty and cultural heritage to shine through. The details in their outfits are exquisite, with many articles adorned with solid silver and gold that have been passed down through generations as cherished heirlooms.
The Jutland fisher-girl exudes a gipsy-like charm with her unadorned costume from Blaavands Huk, adding to the overall picturesque beauty captured in this image. Each figure represents a different aspect of Schleswig culture and tradition, offering viewers a glimpse into the rich history and customs of this region.
Overall, this print serves as both an artistic representation and historical documentation of Schleswig costumes from 1864, highlighting the diversity and elegance found within each individual's attire.
