EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a stunning kincob brocade from the 18th century. The intricate design of this green fabric is adorned with vibrant flowers in crimson, white, gold, and blue. A silk embroidered stomacher in matching colors completes the ensemble. This remarkable piece of textile artistry showcases the wealth and opulence of its time. The image is taken from "History of American Costume - Book One 1607-1800" by Elisabeth McClellan, published by Tudor Publishing Company in New York in 1937. McClellan's book delves into the evolution of fashion throughout American history, providing valuable insights into clothing styles during different eras. In this portrait-style photograph, an unidentified woman sits gracefully while wearing this exquisite garment. Her direct gaze towards the camera exudes confidence and elegance. The studio shot emphasizes her full-length figure against a simple white background. This print serves as a visual representation of both artistic excellence and historical significance. It offers viewers a glimpse into the fashion trends that prevailed during America's early years as a nation. With its meticulous embroidery and luxurious fabric, this kincob brocade exemplifies the craftsmanship and taste associated with affluent individuals at that time. As we admire this remarkable piece captured by an unknown photographer, we are transported back to an era where beauty was intricately woven into every thread of life – even through clothing choices.
