EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Riding and Full-Dress Costume of the Peruvian Ladies; Lima and the Andes,' was published in 'Illustrated Travels' by H.W. Bates in the late 1870s. The image, captured by Augustus Frederick Lindley, provides a glimpse into the fashionable world of high-class Peruvian women during the nineteenth century. The photograph features two elegantly dressed Peruvian ladies, seated on horses against the stunning backdrop of the Andes Mountains. Their full-dress costumes, adorned with vibrant colors and intricate designs, reflect the rich cultural heritage of Peru. The women wear long, flowing skirts, fitted bodices, and ornate hats, accessorized with capes and gloves. Their riding habits, consisting of fitted jackets and breeches, reveal their affinity for the outdoors and the equestrian lifestyle. Augustus Frederick Lindley, a British photographer, captured this image during his travels through South America. The photograph is a testament to the diverse and fascinating world of fashion during the 1870s, showcasing the unique blend of European and indigenous influences in Peruvian society. The image has been preserved in the archives of The Print Collector, a renowned resource for historical photographs, and continues to captivate audiences with its stunning composition and rich cultural significance.
