EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed chromolitho print, titled "Studies of Costume at Our Childrens Fancy Dress Ball" captures the essence of a bygone era. Created by Charles Green in 1893 for The Graphic's Christmas Number, this illustration offers a fascinating glimpse into various historical periods through the lens of children's fancy dress. The image showcases an array of meticulously crafted costumes worn by young participants at the ball. From a naval captain to a Frenchwoman, from the time of Maximilian to early German attire, each outfit represents a different epoch or culture. The viewer is transported back in time as they observe hussars from the 16th century and lifeguardsmen from the 17th century mingling with Dutch officers and individuals dressed in clothing reminiscent of Frederick the Great's era. The attention to detail is remarkable; every garment reflects its respective period with accuracy and flair. Whether it be Directoire fashion or Columbine-inspired attire, these costumes evoke nostalgia for times long past. Through this visual feast, we witness how fashion has evolved over centuries while also appreciating timeless elements that continue to inspire contemporary design. This print serves as both an educational tool and an artistic delight—a testament to Charles Green's skill as an illustrator. Displayed within private collections today, this piece continues to enchant viewers with its rich history and imaginative depiction of costume studies at our children's fancy dress ball.
