EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Season, 1895" takes us back to the enchanting world of Victorian fancy dress parties. The image showcases a delightful array of costumes that were popular during the late 19th century. In the foreground, we see a lady dressed in an exquisite German national costume, complete with intricate embroidery and traditional accessories. Her vibrant ensemble reflects her pride in her heritage and adds a touch of cultural diversity to this festive gathering. Next to her stands another guest who has chosen an unusual yet fascinating attire—an insect costume. With its delicate wings and intricate details, this outfit is sure to have caught everyone's attention at the party. Moving further into the frame, we are transported back in time as two ladies don elegant 18th-century outfits. Their powdered wigs, corseted gowns adorned with lace and ribbons evoke images of grandeur from centuries past. Lastly, our gaze falls upon Columbine—a character from Italian commedia dell'arte—whose dress is ingeniously crafted entirely out of ribbons. This creative choice not only showcases the wearer's artistic flair but also demonstrates their ability to transform everyday materials into something extraordinary. "The Season, 1895" captures the spirit of merriment and imagination that characterized these extravagant events. It serves as a reminder that even over a century later, we can still be captivated by the beauty and creativity displayed during such occasions.
