About this work

Woman in a redingote (?) and polka-dotted skirt with scalloped hem. Capote of black 'atlas'. Pouch 'à la Gondole' mostly made of taffeta and decorated with a floral motif. Intended to carry embroidery and frivolité tools. According to the accompanying text, it is still questionable whether the pouch is a fashion item or if she will really use it. Print from the fashion magazine *Journal des Luxus und der Moden*, published by Friedrich Justin Bertuch and Georg Melchior Kraus, Weimar, 1786-1826.
