  3. Victoria and Albert would make a killing on it if they made it into a calendar (hint, hint, nudge, nudge)

  10. Sumptuous. I wonder if some 18th century rake hung these in his stables and drooled over these lush beauties?

  11. I lately translated a play called "Eugenie" which, though a French play, was supposed to be set in England. The playwright was very specific about the 'English costume' of the characters. These pictures are helpful -- the aprons and bonnets with another hat on top seem to have been very distinctive English fashion traits.
