About this work
Jacket of brown cloth. Model: diagonally cut front panels, long close-fitting sleeves with turned-back cuffs and standing collar. Fastening at the front center by means of metal hooks and eyes (later addition?). No buttonholes. The front panels have a filling (of horsehair?) at the top of the chest to over the shoulder, around the armhole to the top of the back. Sewn-on pocket flaps without pockets; deep patch pockets of natural linen in the box pleats on the back. The back panels are cut off at the bottom and not further finished.
