Notes

Fashion notes: Shows the beginning of neo-classical trends in women's attire (i.e. her simple dress is all-white and unornamented, except for the contrasting green sash, and has a somewhat thin and flowing outer layer). However, neo-classicism has not yet gone as far as introducing the Empire silhouette -- she is still somewhat corseted and full-skirted. She's wearing a hat over her indoors cap...
