- Winter Sophistication: Clarice Auguste Zdunek in Niagara Falls c. 1912
- Description
- This image brings a transition from the light, airy fabrics of summer to the structured, tactile elegance of the winter season. In this c. 1912 portrait, Clarice Auguste Zdunek (1894 – 1968) stands as a striking example of Edwardian winter fashion. Set against the stark, leafless backdrop of a Niagara Falls landscape, Clarice is wrapped in the heavy textures of the era: a dark, tailored coat, a structured hat, and the quintessential accessory of the age, a plush fur muff. There is a sense of composed resilience in her stance, capturing a young woman navigating the biting chill of a New York winter with grace and style.
