This black-and-white engraving depicts a fashionable Victorian woman circa 1870-1875, wearing a high-necked, tightly corseted bodice adorned with circular medallions and floral motifs, paired with a two-toned skirt-dark patterned overskirt over a lighter underskirt-and finished with intricate lace at the hem. Her elaborate bonnet features layered ribbons and a small bow, complementing her curled hairstyle and delicate gloves.
