Le costume, les armes, les bijoux, la céramique, les ustensiles, outils, objets mobiliers, etc. : chez les peuples anciens et modernes
A costume history of Western dress and objects, compiled by Friedrich Hottenroth and published in Paris by A. Guérinet in 1896, drawn for artists and designers studying clothing across ancient and modern peoples. Its plates are chromolithographed rows of standing figures in medieval, Renaissance and early modern dress, set in tidy grids with labelled periods and countries, giving a designer a clear reference for silhouettes, layered garments, headwear, armour and regional variation.
