The days of the Directoire
A popular history of France under the Directory, 1795–99, written by A. R. Allinson and published by John Lane in London in 1910 for English general readers interested in the period's society and dress. Halftone reproductions of period engravings and stipple portraits show officers in plumed bicornes, women in muslin caps, and small theatre and assembly scenes usable as costume reference and oval portrait frames.
