EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print titled "English gloves of various periods" showcases the evolution of glove fashion throughout history. Created by an unknown English School artist in the 20th century, this artwork is part of a private collection. The image features a stunning array of gloves from different eras, offering a glimpse into the diverse styles that have emerged over time. From the Elizabethan era (1558-1603) to present-day designs, these gloves represent not only fashion but also cultural and historical significance. Each glove tells its own story: early forms with gauntlets for protection during hawking; elegant accessories worn by Henry VI and XVI; symbolic gloves associated with Oliver Cromwell's rule; fashionable pieces favored by Napoleon; sophisticated Georgian and Victorian styles, all leading up to contemporary trends. While originating in England, these gloves also highlight their influence on German culture. The print emphasizes Germany's connection to European history through its mention of North Germany and Germanic traditions. This lithograph was originally created as an illustration for The Harmsworth Encyclopaedia around 1922. Its inclusion in this encyclopedic work reflects its educational value as a source of knowledge about British and European heritage. With its rich historical context and artistic beauty, this print serves as a visual testament to the enduring legacy of English glove craftsmanship throughout centuries.
