Garter Lithographic Looking Glass Mens Fashion Menswear Mirror Outline Posing Vain Vanity Lithotint Poseur
EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th century lithograph, titled "Crops," showcases a charming couple dressed in the fashionable attire of the time, standing before a looking glass in a rural English setting. The man wears a tailored coat and trousers, complete with a waistcoat and a flat-crowned hat, while the woman dons a full-length dress with an intricate garter belt and a high-necked blouse. Their poses suggest an air of vanity and self-assurance as they admire their reflection. The black and white lithograph, created using the lithotint process, showcases the intricate details of their clothing, from the textures of the fabric to the precise outlines of every button and fold. The use of contrasting white and black tones adds depth and dimension to the image, making it a stunning piece of heritage art that transports us back in time. The scene is set in a quintessentially English countryside, with crops visible in the background, further emphasizing the connection between the land and the people who worked it. The image is a testament to the importance of fashion in 19th century society and the role it played in expressing one's status and identity. This beautiful lithograph, created by an unknown artist, is now part of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art's collection, where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences. It is a reminder of the rich history of fashion and the enduring allure of the past.
