EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1851, offering a glimpse into the world of women's fashion during that time. The image showcases two elegant ladies dressed in fall walking and riding dresses, exuding both style and sophistication. The fashion illustration originates from an American magazine of the same year, highlighting the evolving trends within society at that time. These engravings were not only a source of inspiration for women but also reflected their social status and aspirations. One can't help but be drawn to the exquisite details of these outfits - from the intricately designed hats to the flowing skirts and tailored jackets. The attention to detail is truly remarkable, capturing every aspect of these fashionable garments. It is fascinating to observe how horseback riding played a significant role in women's lives during this era. The presence of horses in this image symbolizes freedom and independence as these well-dressed equestrians confidently navigate through life. This engraving provides us with valuable insights into middle-class America's upper echelons, where fashion was used as a means of self-expression for women belonging to privileged backgrounds. Such prints served as aspirational pieces for those who sought to emulate this refined lifestyle. The Granger Collection has once again transported us back in time with their exceptional curation. This print serves as a reminder that fashion has always been an art form capable of transcending generations while reflecting societal values and desires.
