The image shows a display at an exhibition titled "L'arte di vestire: donne e moda nell'Ottocento" (The art of dressing: women and fashion in the 19th century) located in the city of Viadana, Italy. The exhibit features three dresses from the Mara Bertoli Collection, showcasing the evolution of women's fashion from the 1830s to the late 1880s. The image focuses on a mannequin wearing a plum-colored silk satin dress with damask floral patterns from around 1885. The dress includes a tightly fitted bodice, buttoned at the front, and a tournure support in the back. The absence of a train suggests it was designed for visits and walks. A display panel to the left provides information about the exhibition and the specific dresses. The text on the panel discusses the changing silhouettes of women's fashion, the impact of printed materials and fashion magazines on the bourgeoisie of Viadana, and detailed descriptions of three dresses from the collection, including the plum-colored dress shown.
