About the Item

Girl on Hindeloopen Sleigh in Dutch Winter Dress, 1932 This exquisite hand-colored lithograph, titled “Plate I: Hindeloopen,” originates from the rare 1932 folio 'The National Costumes of Holland', created by Gratiane de Gardilanne and Elizabeth Whitney Moffatt. Only 500 copies of this folio were printed for commercial use, making each plate a scarce and collectible artifact of early 20th-century ethnographic illustration. The print depicts two women in traditional winter attire from the harbor town of Hindeloopen on the former Zuiderzee, now part of Friesland. The right-hand figure is a young girl, seated joyfully on a painted Hindeloopen sleigh, a striking object in itself, embellished with colorful motifs. She wears a “kassakijntje,” a short coat of checked Indian cotton with distinctive purple and blue coloring, signifying that she is in slight mourning. Her costume is layered with a blue woollen apron, red-and-black fichu, and striped sash, and her hair is braided with ribbons known as “frisselsnoer.” She holds spiked poles in either hand to propel the sleigh. The standing woman wears a long coat known as a “wenkte,” fashioned from flowered chintz and trimmed with an embroidered band called a “langet.” Her headdress includes a white cap and red scarf, with a golden “naald” or plaque securing her fichu. She carries a traditional wooden skate in her hand, reinforcing the wintery character of the scene. The lithograph was printed in full color by the esteemed firm Vincent, Brooks, Day & Son in London, known for their exceptional chromolithographic work. The technique used here combines painterly softness with precise detail, especially evident in the textile patterns and facial expressions. Condition and Framing Tips: The print remains in excellent vintage condition with strong color retention and no visible tears or stains. Given its age and rarity, framing under UV-protective glass is recommended. A double mat—neutral outer and a deep red or navy inner—can draw out the rich tones of the garments. A simple black or walnut frame will complement both traditional and modern interiors while preserving the print’s historical integrity.
