engraving source A patron needs to find the source of an engraving. Here is her query:

"I am currently writing an article for "Dress", the journal of Costume Society of America.  For this I'm trying to locate a print that was used by a former Dean of the Philadelphia College of Art, Edward Warwick, in his book, Early American Dress, published in 1965 by Benjamin Blom (New York), and co-authored by Henry C. Pitz and Alexander Wyckoff.  I'm hoping that you can help me with this mystery, as the publisher is no longer in business and all there authors are long dead.

On p. 175 of Early American Dress, there is an engraving called "A Section of The Petticoat or The Venus of 42 and 94" that identifies the left-hand side of the engraving as being by Hogarth.  The right-hand side of the engraving says it is by "Lady C. C'l", which I know as a misidentification as Lady Charlotte Campbell is the subject of the engraving, not the artist".
