Check or tartan ribbons form the crown of her hat and the bows with which it is trimmed. A similar tartan is worn as a pelerine, crossed at the waist and tied in a bow, long voluminous ends hanging down the back of her dress. A tartan ribbon is tied to the handle of her fan. From the brim of her hat, in which is an erect ostrich feather, hangs a transparent curtain of gauze. Her hair, cut short across the forehead, hangs down her back in a long queue, tied up at the end with a bow. There is a landscape background."--British Museum online catalogue</dc:description><dc:description>Title from item.</dc:description><dc:description>Printmaker from British Museum online catalogue.</dc:description><dc:description>Temporary local subject terms: Female costume.</dc:description><dc:description>Watermark (partial): Strasburg lily with initials G R below, center left</dc:description></oai_dc:dc>
