VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a black and white illustration of an elegant couple from the early 20th century, capturing the fashion and style of that era. The man wears a dark suit with a peaked lapel, sporting a fedora hat and holding what appears to be gloves in his hand, while also wearing round glasses. A boutonnière adds a touch of sophistication to his attire. The woman beside him exudes elegance in her flapper-style dress with layered fabrics and geometric patterns indicative of Art Deco influence. She dons a cloche hat which was iconic for women's fashion during the 1920s, along with a short bob haircut that frames her face showing off the distinctive makeup trends of that time period like pronounced eyebrows and cupid bow lips. Her draped shawl or scarf gives an additional sense of movement and grace to her silhouette.
The artwork has "BY TONY CASTLE" written at its bottom right corner, suggesting it may have been created by an artist named Tony Castle who sought to depict the sophisticated urbanites of their day through stylized forms and minimalistic color palettes characteristic of certain artistic movements from this historical period such as Cubism or Art Deco itself.
