EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Buskin" takes us back to the 19th century when this elaborate footwear was in vogue. The print captures the intricate details of a buskin, a high boot made of leather that was often adorned with ornate embellishments. The image is part of a private collection and has been digitally cleaned to enhance its clarity and beauty. It originally appeared as an illustration in Adeline's Art Dictionary, published by Virtue in 1891. The term "buskin" holds great historical significance within the realm of art and fashion. This artwork allows us to delve into the rich history behind this unique piece of footwear, which played a significant role not only as practical attire but also as a symbol of status and style during its time. Through this print, we are transported back to an era where craftsmanship and attention to detail were highly valued. The fine lines etched on the engraving showcase the skillful technique employed by the English School artist who created it. With Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder bringing this remarkable piece into our lives, we can appreciate both its artistic merit and its contribution to our understanding of historical fashion trends.
