10th plate of album with 60 19th-century costume plates and 1 drawing of mostly women's historical costumes, featuring a variety of designs for traditional costumes from different parts of the world, as well as costumes for literary characters, such as Esmeralda. This plate contains a woman wearing a Reaper costume, made up of a sleeveless blouse under a black bralette and a vertically-striped, narrow skirt with cream ruffles at the bottom, a straw hat with a thin bundle of tiny flowers of lively colors with a black ribbon bow, a black ribbon necklace and a black ribbon bracelet on each hand. She holds a silver hook on one hand, and wears light blue stockings and black low-heeled shoes with bows.
