Victorian Fashions by Carol Grafton
Panoramic display of evolving styles ranges from ornate gowns of the mid-1800s, widened by hoop skirts, to turn-of-the-century fashions that produced balloon sleeves, diminished bustles, and close-fitting skirts. Hundreds of delightful images of elegant dresses, hats, shoes, handbags, undergarments, and much more. "A superb resource." — History in Review.
French illustrator Gustave Doré (1833-83) began his prolific career at the age of 15, and his dramatic engravings have exercised an incalculable influence over latter-day artists. The remarkable scope of his work ranges from Milton, Dante, and the Bible to Rabelais, Shakespeare, and street scenes of 19th-century London.
