Illustration for Walter Scott's "Waverley"

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Illustration for Walter Scott's "Waverley" by Woldemar Friedrich.
“The drawing-room of Flora Mac-Ivor was furnished in the plainest and most simple manner [...]. But there was no appearance of this parsimony in the dress of the lady herself, which was in texture elegant, and even rich, and arranged in a manner which partook partly of the Parisian fashion and partly of the more simple dress of the Highlands, blended together with great taste. Her hair was not disfigured by the art of the friseur, but fell in jetty ringlets on her neck, confined only by a circlet, richly set with diamonds. This peculiarity she adopted in compliance with the Highland prejudices, which could not endure that a woman’s head should be covered before wedlock.”
