« Floral Elegance »

Imagine commanding the masses of roses and other flowers such as you see women holding in portraits from the latter 19th and earlier 20th centuries. I have no idea if this late 20s – early 30s print is a bride, bride's maid or other formal attire, but nearly half of her gown is hidden behind the bouquet!

The embossed texture of the print looks like the pebbled pattern in pig skin. You learn never to be too surprised by what you see in studio photos, but here it looks for all the world like she is standing on an old unfinished board from a construction project scaffolding – nail holes and all!
