EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning Parasol, American, dating back to the years 1860-69. The creator of this exquisite piece remains unknown, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to its allure. This parasol is a true representation of 19th-century fashion and accessories. The delicate craftsmanship and attention to detail are evident in every aspect of this parasol. Made from scalloped silk fabric in a beautiful ivory color, it exudes elegance and sophistication. The intricate metal frame adds structural integrity while also contributing to its overall aesthetic appeal. As we gaze upon this remarkable artifact, we are transported back in time to an era where coquetry and coquettishness were celebrated aspects of women's attire. This parasol was not only a practical accessory for protection against the sun but also served as a symbol of status and style. Now housed at the Brooklyn Museum or The Metropolitan Museum of Art (also known as "the Met"), this heritage art piece stands as a testament to America's rich cultural history. It serves as a reminder that fashion has always played an essential role in defining our identity as individuals and as a country. Through this photograph print by Unknown, we can appreciate the beauty found within historical textiles like these parasols - objects that have witnessed centuries pass by yet still manage to captivate us with their timeless charm.
