Chats on costume
A popular survey of European dress by the English designer and etcher George Woolliscroft Rhead, published in London by T. Fisher Unwin in 1906 for collectors and students of costume. Halftones after painted portraits and reproductions of old engravings show Elizabethan embroidered gowns, periwigs, lace cuffs, ruffs and plumed hats — useful for period silhouettes and surface-pattern detail.
