Beschreibung
At the intersection of art, craftsmanship, and industry, historical mannequins are fascinating testimonies to the spirit of their times. They embody ideals of beauty, fashion trends, and also advertising strategies. Museums, art dealers, and collectors have long since discovered the cultural and historical value and the aesthetic appeal of these objects.
This publication showcases period-specific figures and archive materials from the most important German and French manufacturers between 1850 and 1950, complemented by even earlier objects and documents. The focus is on the 1920s and 1930s, a golden era of window display art, when artists such as Rudolf Belling, Karl Schenker, Paul Scheurich, and Gerhard Schliepstein created iconic models.
An indispensable reference work for anyone interested in fashion history, design, arts and crafts, and the culture of visual merchandising.
