[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 9614357, member: 2844"]The girl is wearing a regional costume. Folk dresses and skirts rarely follow fashionable skirt lengths, those few that do are usually at least a decade behind general fashion. OPs painting could be situated on Rügen as well. There are variations on the costume, like these three fishermen's wives from Mönchgut on Rügen, published by Franz Lipperheide 1876-1887: [ATTACH=full]468846[/ATTACH] [URL]https://world4.eu/folk-dresses-rugen-germany/[/URL] Her skirt isn't as wide as most European folk costumes have, most are worn over several underskirts. That means it is probably a poor region or a poor period in history. I swear I didn't do it.:bag:[/QUOTE]
