EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of an English lawyer from the seventeenth century. The image, taken in 1937, is part of Elisabeth McClellan's renowned book "History of American Costume - Book One 1607-1800". The unknown creator skillfully portrays a distinguished man dressed in traditional attire, showcasing the fashion trends of that era. The lawyer stands outdoors against an urban backdrop, his oval-shaped portrait framed elegantly. His clothing reflects the sartorial customs of the time, with a cape draped over his shoulders and cuffs adorning his sleeves. A high collar adds formality to his ensemble while he gracefully doffs his hat as a gesture of greeting or respect. This historical snapshot provides us with a glimpse into both fashion and legal history. It serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, lawyers played crucial roles in society and were expected to present themselves with dignity and professionalism. Although the identity of both the subject and photographer remain unknown, this print holds immense value for its contribution to our understanding of seventeenth-century England. As we delve into this intriguing visual representation through time-traveling lenses, we are reminded once again how art can transcend eras by capturing moments frozen forever in ink on paper.
