IN THE GREAT HOUSE

 

( Image owned by the account holder)

In the great house a gathering of the fair and the worthy is scheduled, befitting the stately surroundings.

 

Our presentation is a traditional tribute to the glorious Spring that returns, as ever, to our shores and enlivens our countryside.

 

Among the company, one of the ladies, like others of her wont, has been so good as to assemble her very best ‘Easter Parade’ costume, with naturally a floral basket to match.

 

Lace yoke, exceptionally full sleeves and fancy cuffs! A generously cut and flounced skirt lies below! And a delightful ‘petit chapeau’ for the occasion!

 

As has been said many times, an outfit celebrating all the values of past centuries! (Rest assured that the lady will not be resting on her laurels, but readying herself to serve a mixed repast to the assembled gathering, as and when required!)

 

Note to viewers:

 

A photograph from a time long ago but one suited to this season….

 

Please think how you can help ladies of an older generation to live a fuller and more contented life….Thank you!
