About the Item

LADIES DRESS SHOES. Plate XII. The charming color lithograph is from “Ladies’ Dress Shoes of the Nineteenth Century” was assembled by the antiquarian/shoe collector T. Watson Greig of Glencarse and published in Edinburgh by David Douglas in 1900. This print comes with a companion text sheet. Text for plate XII: A handsome shoe this of rich silver brocade, with bow of same, pointed toe, and substantial Louis heel. The incurved seam at back gives a firmer hold to heel and ankle. Miss Edna May owned the centre shoe, and it was worn by her as the 'Belle of New York.' The embroidery in white silk and silver beads is faultless in design. the heel is an extremity of height, and is much the safer for the single ankle-strap, with its neat bow and ornament. No. 3, of plain silver kid, has elongated tow, beaded by small silver ornament. It is a suitable shoe for fancy dress, but has this drawback - together with its two companions, also much besilvered - a liability to tarnish." Metallic ink accents on all three shoes.
