Habit of a Lady of Chio

by Thomas Jefferys

Return to the mid-1700s through this beautiful copper plate engraving titled "Habit of a Lady of Chio." This work portrays the characteristic shape and headwear that distinguish the women of Chios (Scio), a Greek island located in the Ottoman Empire.

This work was created by Thomas Jefferys, Geographer to His Majesty King George III. Rather than being a simple fashion illustration, the print offers ethnography at its finest, depicting the blend of East Mediterranean and West European cultures. With its delicate lines and distinctive "Jefferys" depiction of textiles, this print provides an elegant glimpse into the Levantine world of the past.
