Summer Fashions for 1838, View in Windsor Park by B Read and Co
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating snapshot of the fashion trends that graced the summer season in the year 1838. This coloured aquatint print, created by an anonymous English School artist from the 19th century, offers us a glimpse into the sartorial choices of both men and women during this era. The scene unfolds against the majestic backdrop of Windsor Castle, where gentlemen can be seen raising their hats in a chivalrous gesture while strolling along the famous Long Walk. The women are adorned in elegant dresses with wide-brimmed hats and parasols to shield themselves from the sun's rays. Their outfits exude Victorian charm and sophistication. Amidst this fashionable spectacle, children also make an appearance, showcasing miniature versions of adult attire. The attention to detail in their clothing highlights how even young ones were expected to adhere to societal standards of dress. This image transports us back to a time when parks served as social gathering spots for leisurely walks and horseback rides. It serves as a visual reminder of how fashion has evolved over time while also emphasizing its enduring influence on our lives. Displayed proudly at London Metropolitan Archives, City of London, this artwork preserved by Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate not only its aesthetic value but also gain insights into historical clothing styles that have shaped our understanding of fashion today.
