Delphos, Mariano Fortuny, 1920s, The Metropolitan Museum of Art
Marble Stature of Eirene, Roman copy of a Greek original, 14-68 CE, The Metropolitan Museum of Art
I desperately want to say something self-deprecating but instead I'm just going to say that I'm working on digitally redrafting some patterns I did more than a decade ago. They'll look so much better and potentially be more usable!
Once I'm done, I'll send them all to the Chapman so they can add them to their PastPerfect records. (Here's this one's record.)
To quote from my blog post on this piece:
Mariano Fortuny y Madrazo (1871-1949) is best remembered for two things: vibrantly patterned silks and velvets, and the Delphos gown, inspired by ancient Greek chitons (themselves imported from Asia Minor), which were made from a single rectangular panel of linen or silk sewn into a tube, the top edge fastened with brooches down the length of the arms, and belted to fit to the body. The Neoclassical revival had already begun in the decorative arts by 1907, when Fortuny developed the Delphos, and high fashion was beginning to show its influence as well – but this was much more extreme than anything else in existence at the time. Not only was it originally intended to be worn without a corset at home (corsetless teagowns had been worn for some time already), there was absolutely nothing about its design that hid that fact. The straight, clinging line would soon become mainstream fashion, but when the Delphos dress was first designed it was a radical departure.
