Acht stroken 18de-eeuws kant geproduceerd in Mechelen, uit de collectie van het Kunstgewerbemuseum in Dresden, Duitsland 1888

This photograph by an anonymous artist, taken in 1888, features a collection of eight pieces of 18th-century lace from the Kunstgewerbemuseum in Dresden, Germany. The lacework, likely produced in Mechelen, showcases intricate floral patterns and delicate stitching, typical of this era and style. This image, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, provides a valuable glimpse into the craftsmanship and aesthetic sensibilities of 18th-century lacemaking.
