The image showcases a citizen of the better class wearing a mandevile, which is a type of waistcoat that fits loosely around the body and has no sleeves. This traditional English attire reflects the fashion trends of the era with its unique design. The man in this photograph stands confidently, showcasing his stylish ensemble. He wears breeches and tights, emphasizing his elegant stature. His hat adds an extra touch of sophistication to his overall appearance. The monochrome effect enhances the timeless quality of this historical costume.
