Title
Early advertsing photograph of model wearing Spirella corset.
Brief description
A black and white photograph from around 1910 of a model posing in a Spirella corset. She sits on a cane-backed chair in a bedroom setting. Behind her are thick fabric hangings with a floral pattern. On the floor a patterned carpet. She sits in front of an elaborate dressing table looking into a hand mirror. On the table, which is covered by a lace cloth, is a small vase of flowers and what appears to be a silver dressing table set of two brushes. She wears a lace cap and a corset tied at the front with a large bow. Under the corset is a cotton chemise and the model wears stockings and black court shoes. There is a length of dark coloured fabric, probably velvet, and a light coloured one of probably a silk-type fabric, arranged decoratively across her lap.. There are two other similar photographs in the set, 100.246.11 and 100.246.12. The photograph is stored in a card cover, 100.246.10.1
