the beautiful illustrations in Fashions of the Past - issued separately from the 1860s onwards in Munich - were later published at the beginning of the 20th century in Great Britain. Meticulously drawn and coloured, and based on a variety of sources, they provide an invaluable guide to the history and development of dress. Beginning with the costumes from ancient history through to the nineteenth century, each illustration is accompanied by a carefully researched description. From Asia and the Far East to Europe, kings and emperors, peasants and priests, soldiers and servants are grouped in traditional attire, arranged by region and period. Different styles of headdress, sarongs and caftans, breeches and gowns, are all displayed in glorious colour. the wealth of visual and textual material is fascinating to anyone with a professional or amateur interest in the costume and fashions of the past.
