blackbeltkitten2:met-costume:Coat, Metropolitan Museum of Art: Costume InstitutePurchase, Irene Lewisohn Trust Gift, 1991Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, NYMedium: silkYo Met, what damn time frame was this made, please?c. 1765.@met-costume please I am begging you to sort out your captions. Nobody cares about the accession date. Well, maybe somebody out there does, but including the date the thing was made is much much much more important when you’re running a fashion history blog.Please. It isn’t hard to do. It took me about 5 seconds to find that object page, and anyways you must be looking at the pages to get the images in the first place.What’s with the link at the top of your posts? It just leads to your own tumblr. Why? Why not link to the object page?? I see your posts on my dash fairly often and they’re all like this, and I don’t mind saying that I find it incredibly irritating. -- source link
