Ancient Egyptian, Assyrian, and Persian costumes and decorations
A costume-history handbook by Mary G. Houston and Florence S. Hornblower, published by A. & C. Black in London in 1920 for art students, designers, and theatre dressmakers. Line drawings in plain outline show draped robes, shawls, and tunics on headless mannequin figures, with pattern diagrams and border ornament that supply clean fold lines, fringe, and repeating trim motifs.
