A seated woman in a half-length pose draws attention to the layered accessories here: a fur stole draped over a dress and a feathered hat. Photographs like this, from around 1921, were often made to show clothing and millinery to advantage, for use in trade catalogs, newspapers, and fashion pages. The dress and hat styles reflect the early 1920s, when fur neckpieces and plumed hats were popular for afternoon and evening wear. The record is brief and its details are unverified, so the sitter and the photographer's identity remain unknown.
