Posepack: 18th Century Portrait

Family portrait poses; some may even be useful for everyday situations. I numbered them by source-painting, but there are actually a lot of possibilities to combine and arrange them.

The armchair is the one I happen to have in Blender. In some cases (like pose 2) a slimmer model may work even better.

The child in pose 3 is holding a twig or riding crop originally. I left this open to photoshop or use with buymode-objects.

The standing poses 4a and 4b come with lots of variations. The pair can either be toddler-child or child-teen/adult, or even all three in a row. There are also alternative arm-poses for the girl standing in the back. I made the clutching at dress pose for the child with this dress. The Princess-dress from Generations or Windermeresimblr's edit have the same frills.

In pose 5 the child is slightly stretched.

18th Century Fashion - A Green Apron

Is This a Unique Artifact?

In attempting to research this apron and its wider political context, I found it difficult to find similar aprons given the limited information provided on the MET website. This was strange to me. Looking at other trends in historical fashion at the time, there are endless varieties of the same style produced over multiple years. This is especially true after the advent of fashion plates and magazines: which made keeping up with current trends and styles much easier than ever before. Therefore, it was surprising to not find fabrics dyed in the same color green as this apron, or even an apron in the same shape or sewing pattern. 

Some examples of other aprons as painted in the 18th century:

At the Inn Door, Henry Singleton. Victoria and Albert Museum, Accession number 1834-1900

A Girl Buying A Ballad, Henry Walton. Tate, Reference number T07594

Jonathan Tyers and his Family, Francis Hayman. National Portrait Gallery, NPG 5588.

This is post three of a multipart analysis of this apron.

Staff Pick of the Week 

The History and Adventures of the Renowned Don Quixote

This lovely two volume set came across my desk recently after being treated to some much-needed preservation measures.

This particular version of Cervantes’s classic work, published in 1755 by Andrew Millar in London, is an English translation by Tobias Smollet  (who in turn was revising the 1742 translation by Charles Jervas). Smollet was himself a poet and author, known for similarly picaresque tales. George Orwell praised him as "Scotland's best novelist." 

The translation is accompanied by 28 copper plate engravings or etchings, designed by Francis Hayman. Hayman, also a painter, illustrated many popular texts, including Milton’s Paradise Lost and Samuel Richardson’s Pamela. He was one of the founding members of the Royal Academy of Arts in London as well as its first librarian. Hayman was highly influential in establishing book illustration practices in England and it has been said that "some of his works were so popular that the plates were used until they wore out." Although Hayman designed the illustrations, the engravings were carried out by other artists, as noted in the bottom right-hand corner of each engraving, including French engravers Gérard Jean Baptiste Scotin II and Simon François Ravenet, and British engraver Charles Grignion the Elder. For those who enjoy art and book history, we direct you to John E. Ruch’s article “Francis Hayman's Drawings for Moore's Fables” to learn more about Hayman’s role in book illustration. 

Enjoy!
