EDITORS COMMENTS
This print is a beautiful illustration from the pages of El Correo de la Moda, a women's newspaper published in Madrid from 1835 to 1868. The title "Periáñez y Miñano: Ilustrado para las mujeres" translates to "Periáñez y Miñano: Illustrated for Women." The image showcases a collection of feminine dresses designed for a costume party, a popular form of entertainment during the carnival season in Spain. The engraving, which is rich in color and detail, features a variety of women in elaborate and intricately designed costumes, some wearing masks to conceal their identities. The dresses range from elegant and refined to playful and whimsical, reflecting the diverse and creative spirit of the time. This vertical print, which is part of the National Library's extensive collection in Madrid, offers a fascinating glimpse into the daily life and fashion sensibilities of women during the 19th century in Spain. The engravings in El Correo de la Moda were not only a source of entertainment but also a reflection of the social and cultural norms of the time, making them an invaluable historical resource. This image, with its vibrant colors and lively depiction of people in costume, is a testament to the enduring appeal of fashion and the role it plays in expressing individuality and celebrating community.
