A WATERCOLOUR DESIGN BY JOHN GALLIANO, UNSIGNED
'A Patriot Wearing a Phrygian Cap, c1793,'--7.5 x 10.5in. (19 x 26.6cm), in larger mount, framed and glazed

Probably from Galliano's 'Les Incroyables' degree show at Central St Martin's, 1984.

Specialist note

The 'Incroyables' collection was inspired by late 18th century French extremes of dress, adopted by street dandies. It was a stunning debut for Galliano, and sold out immediately.

See 'Vintage: The Art of Dressing Up,' by Tracy Tolkein, p132 for similar.
