EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1897 showcases an advertisement for boys' school outfits, including those worn by students attending the prestigious Eton College. The image exudes a sense of timeless elegance and sophistication that was characteristic of the late 19th century upper class fashion. On the left side of the photograph, we see two young boys dressed in impeccably tailored suits, representing the epitome of refined style. Their attire includes a combination of traditional elements such as top hats, waistcoats, and canes alongside more contemporary pieces like knickerbockers and straw boater hats. This fusion creates a unique blend of classicism and modernity that was highly sought after during this era. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect of their ensembles - from the intricate patterns on their tweed jackets to the meticulously tied ties around their collars. It is clear that no expense was spared in crafting these exquisite garments. The advertisement itself is beautifully engraved with elegant typography showcasing various text details about each item featured in this collection. The overall composition exudes a sense of refinement and exclusivity that would have undoubtedly appealed to discerning customers seeking only the finest quality clothing for their sons. This remarkable piece captures not only an era but also reflects how fashion played a significant role even among school-going boys at Eton College during 1897.
