Description
Vintage Folk Costumes of Europe Coloring Book Here are 130 authentic examples of folk art in its most engaging and colorful form-folk costume. Selected from the 1450 illustrations compiled in Braun & Schneider's popular Historic Costume in Pictures (Dover 23150-X), these large-size renderings by Susan Johnston portray traditional costumes trom regions such as the Balkans, Bavaria, Yugoslavia, the Crimea, Estonia and Finland. They have been chosen to show the different styles of dress which were appropriate for work, social and festive occasions, and religious celebrations. Particular attention is paid to accuracy of historic detail. You can color these drawings with the help of the full-color illustrations shown on the covers, or upon the basis of your own investigations or imagination. In either case they provide a beautiful introduction to an intriguing aspect of our European heritage, and to the costumes which have been the basis of so many popular movements in modern fashion. Original (1977) Dover publication. Introduction. 45 illustrations. 48pp. 8¼ x 11.
