Finally! The Dresden clothes

[mmcnealy]

Finally, The Abegg-Stiftung is having an exhibition with the clothes that they have been restoring from Dresden! Its only been how many years since we got the sneak peak through the talks in LA? Four?

Thanks to myladyswardrobe for the heads up about it!

Here's the link, and there is a catalog too, for CHF 85 + postage.

If someone sends you, can I hide in your luggage?

*sigh* at least we can hope for a good catalogue.

What are the chances of a 'Janet Arnold' style paper on the mens' garments from the 16th C? I wonder if the curators will be publishing something of that sort...

Damn, with the hubby unemployed, I really can't rationalize splurging for the catalogue. :( Here's hoping someone in my area picks it up!

I wonder if the catalog contains the Dresden clothes? (I hope so...) The title infers that the clothing is 17th century, not 16th century, but it is always hard to tell what may be in the catalog. It looks nummy tho! Thank you for the heads up.

Sadly my ILL librarian just informed me that this item is not available at this time. She asked me to check back with her at the end of the year. I am setting an Outlook reminder....*evil grin*

I am in the process of trying to add the appropriate catalogue to my Librarything 'I Want!' tag list: Which of the available catalogues are we guessing hold information on the Saxon clothes?
