Description
-
Here we see Mr. Rushworth showing off his costume for the play Lover’s Vows. In this scene, Edmund arrives home and Mr. Yates, Mr. Rushworth, and Tom Bertram are all discussing the play they have chosen. Mr. Rushworth stepped forward to tell Edmund about the play, and happily saying that he would need to get a new suit as his costume. This scene occurs in chapter 15. The characters are shown in the traditional regency style. Mr. Rushworth is wearing a waistcoat and tailcoat, with breeches and a cravat. The regency period dated to the early nineteenth century (1811-1820) when George, Prince of Wales, later George IV (r. 1820-1830), reigned as regent for his mentally ill father, King George III (r. 1760-1820). The regency period is associated with the rise of neoclassicism in art and fashion.
