Painting Description
"Ornatus Muliebris Anglicanus" or "The Several Habits of English Women" is a celebrated series of engravings by the Bohemian artist Wenceslaus Hollar (1607–1677). Created in 1640, this work is renowned for its detailed and intricate portrayal of the clothing and fashion of English women of various social standings during the early 17th century. Hollar, who spent a significant portion of his career in England, was a prolific artist known for his etchings that captured landscapes, urban scenes, and figures with remarkable precision and detail.
The "Ornatus Muliebris Anglicanus" series is particularly valued for its historical and cultural significance, offering insights into the fashion, social norms, and roles of women in 17th-century English society. Through his meticulous etchings, Hollar provides a window into the period's clothing styles, from the elaborate and ornate dresses of the aristocracy to the simpler attire of the common folk, highlighting the diversity and complexity of English fashion at the time.
Comprising several plates, each etching in the series focuses on a different figure, dressed in attire that corresponds to her social status, age, or occupation. The series is not only a testament to Hollar's skill as an artist but also serves as an important document for historians and scholars interested in the study of costume, gender roles, and social history during the Stuart period in England.
Hollar's work, including the "Ornatus Muliebris Anglicanus," is celebrated for its attention to detail, accuracy, and the artist's ability to convey texture, fabric, and the weight of garments through his etching technique. Today, these engravings are held in high esteem by collectors, researchers, and museums around the world, offering a fascinating glimpse into the past and enriching our understanding of 17th-century English culture and fashion.
