A. Bretschneider
(Untitled) Portrait of A Distinguished Man in A Bowler Hat

1961

About the Item

In 1961, there would have been a chauffeured Rolls-Royce Phantom V limousine waiting for this gentleman curbside. Perhaps he was a new ambassador paying his respects to a head of government, or a diplomat heading a delegation at the United Nations, back when it mattered most. Silk tie, French cuffs and goatskin gloves are just a reminder in today’s workout-casual era of how handsomely clothes made the man. Does the man on your mind have a dedicated dressing room?
