Tricot en Lingerie
The intent of this 1957 Dutch publication, Tricot en Lingerie, was to illustrate examples of materials and styles for men’s and women’s undergarments.
Although its original purpose was to be instructional, I found the faceless models pictured in dramatic poses to be more akin to scenes from a movie. I could not resist their haunting beauty.
Mixed media and vellum on rag paper.
