865 · Braun & Schneider · 28 pictures

A hand-coloured Munich broadsheet of the 1860s from the Münchener Bilderbogen series, published by Braun & Schneider for a popular German audience, presenting costume plates of people from the Caucasus and Ottoman lands. The pictures show men and women in layered robes, sashes, caps and weapons, with a round shield, sabres and a long-necked lute, offering a designer clear reference for regional dress, patterned textiles and period colour.
