EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Clerical Outfitter" takes us back to the 1930s, a time when high street fashion was not limited to just clothing boutiques. The image showcases an illustration from J. M. Richards' book "High Street" beautifully printed by the renowned Curwen Press and published by Country Life in 1938. The artwork, created by Eric Ravilious, captures the essence of a traditional clerical outfitter's store on a bustling English high street. The vibrant colors of the lithograph bring life to this snapshot of history, transporting us to a different era. Intriguingly, the display window is adorned with various clergy garments and accessories such as dog collars and robes. This glimpse into the world of ecclesiastical attire offers insight into both religious practices and sartorial choices during that time period. The storefront itself exudes elegance with its grand architecture and inviting entrance. It serves as a reminder that even in times past, businesses took pride in their appearance while catering to specific clientele like members of the Church of England. This particular print is part of The Stapleton Collection housed within a private collection today. Its presence allows art enthusiasts and history buffs alike to appreciate Ravilious' skillful depiction while also reflecting on how society has evolved over time.
