Maryana Skuratovskaya is a historian and researcher, a specialist in fashion history, and a member of the Union of Russian Writers.

How did artists convey the fashions of their time, and where did they embellish? What do outfits "say" about the status, character, and secrets of their wearer? Why have clothes changed over the centuries?

Lush dresses, exquisite fabrics, cuts, accessories, and hairstyles… An outfit can say much more about its owner and the time than might first appear. In this book, we will examine famous European and Russian paintings from the Renaissance to the early 20th century. You will learn to look at paintings as fashion historians do: notice the details of outfits, understand their language, and see living people and an entire era behind them!
