About the Item

A group of four chromolithographed illustrations of shoes, some printed with gold and silver inks. [Published: David Douglas, Edinburgh, 1900]. Plates taken from a scarce first edition illustrating the fashion of the 19th Century: ‘The sixty-three ladies’ shoes now illustrated have all belonged to and been worn by ladies of the 19th century. They have been most carefully selected to illustrate the variety and change of fashion during that period.’ Each page contains three nearly life-sized shoes except for a single shoe on frontispiece and last plate, which depicts Madame Cerri's ballet slipper.
