Portrait of unidentified woman in lace formal dress
Title
Portrait of unidentified woman in lace formal dress
Description
Black and white portrait of a woman in a long formal gown. The gown's outer layer is lace, and consists of a short, full, gathered skirt over a longer, floor length skirt. The bodice is sleeveless, and the woman holds a small purse in one hand. Her hair has been curled and parted, styled away from her face. She stands on a platform between two columns. Museum records do not identify the woman, but this image was part of the Herbert E. McMullen bequest, and appeared to be one of several intended to document hairstyles of the day. McMullen was a local photographer who also collected other images of daily life in the area.
