EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Advertisement (engraving)" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the world of fashion and advertising during that time. The image showcases an intricately detailed engraving created by the European School, now part of a private collection. The advertisement was originally featured in Myras Journal of Dress and Fashion on May 1st, 1881. It beautifully captures the essence of ladies' fashion from that era, highlighting London and Paris as prominent fashion capitals. The women depicted exude elegance and sophistication while donning stylish garments suitable for summer. Notable brands such as J Lichtenfeld Court Hairdresses are cleverly incorporated into this piece, emphasizing their expertise in wig-making and scalp concealment techniques. One can't help but notice the exquisite Countess Ostrich Feathers adorning some of these fashionable ensembles. This historical snapshot not only provides insight into clothing trends but also serves as a testament to the power of advertising during this period. The attention to detail in both design and execution is truly remarkable. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, we have access to this enchanting artwork today. As we admire this print, let's appreciate how it transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the artistry behind advertisements that shaped society's perception of style over a century ago.
