EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning Pelerine, an American garment from the years 1835-40. The creator of this exquisite piece remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to its allure. With its intricate floral pattern and delicate lace detailing, this Pelerine represents the height of fashion in 19th century America. The vibrant colors and rich fabric used in this attire reflect the heritage art and craftsmanship of that era. This particular Pelerine is on display at the Brooklyn Museum, a testament to its historical significance. Its presence evokes images of women donning such elegant clothing as they navigated their way through bustling streets or attended grand social events. The Metropolitan Museum of Art also houses similar textiles from this period, highlighting how these garments were not only fashionable but also considered valuable objects worthy of preservation. As we gaze upon this photo print, it transports us back to a time when attention to detail and refined taste were highly valued.
