1922 Pochoir Assyrian Women Costume Dress Tunic Veil
“This an original 1922 pochoir print of a variety of traditional Assyrian women’s dresses or tunics—including one with a veil to cover the eyes (fig. 9).
Period Paper has obtained a beautiful collection of original pochoir prints of historical costumes from around the world. This rare collection was printed by zincography, a printing process of engraving or etching on zinc plates, and colored in pochoir, a process of hand painting using stencils, or pochoirs, on each image. This painstaking process captures the smallest detail of each costume, making this an extraordinary artistic as well as historic collection of costume images.
