This fashion plate from the Dutch magazine *Elegantia* depicts a woman in an elegant blue cashmere cloak with a fur collar and a simple white bonnet. The engraving, dating back to 1809, showcases the fashionable attire of the period. The plate exemplifies the 19th-century fascination with fashion illustration and the magazine's dedication to presenting the latest trends to its female audience. This plate is a prime example of fashion illustration and is now part of the Rijksmuseum collection in Amsterdam.
