Description |
English: A companion print to BMSat 6874. A number of ladies wearing enormous hats and inflated petticoats as in BMSat 6874, are being, or have been, fitted with the puffed-out gauze cages which made the fashionable silhouette (the 'fortification bosom') project extravagantly at the breast. Some, with breasts exposed, wait to be fitted. A thin lady on the extreme left looks at herself in an oval wall-mirror, while the fitter arranges her dress; another advances, holding a large pair of balloon-like pads. One with an enormous projection beneath her chin is about to leave the room by a door on the extreme right, she looks round with a triumphant smile. All wear hats with enormous brims, some circular, some drooping and bonnet-shaped. A gigantic circular hat, larger than an umbrella, is suspended from the centre of the ceiling. In the foreground a dog, its hind-quarters shaved, and long thick hair on its neck and chest, burlesques the fashion. 1 January 1786

Licensing
[edit]This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag. Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag. |
