Books like Introducing European costume by Rebecca Quinton


Glasgow Museums started collecting European costume in the 1870s. Several of these early donations were from local manufactures, and are typical of the major textile industries that were once proud to call Glasgow home. The collection continued to develop during the early decades of the 20th century, primarily as a result of generous gifts from the public. Many items have never been seen before and this beautifully illustrated book reveals some of the very best objects, in particular some-one-of-a kind 16th-century articles from the Burrell Collection. The book features all new photography, showcasing the lavish costume and highlighting the gorgeous details of the dresses and ornate accessories selected for inclusion. Exhibition: Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum, Glasgow, United Kingdom (2015/2016).
