Abstract |
The paper considers such a type of road accessories as baggage, which became an element of costume during the development of fashion of the 19–21 centuries, and won a stable position in the hierarchy of fashion art. The suitcase is one of the “youngest” types of luggage — Louis Vuitton's invention, as a light, roomy and mobile version of a bulky chest. It is noteworthy that the suitcases were made of a variety of materials, and a number of countries, including Russia, witnessed the evolution of wicker luggage, such as baskets, later chests, and with the advent of an easy option — suitcases. The authors trace the history of chests and suitcases woven from vines in Russia, dwelling upon the study of suitcase of the beginning of the 20th century. The suitcase under study belonged to the soloist of the Bolshoi Theater A.M. Timoshaeva and is a complex of materials that are used in its manufacture — a vine case, a metal alloy (brass) — fittings, an iron frame with paper porcelain cardboard, leather decorative elements and a handle, fabric lining. Being in an unsatisfactory condition, the suitcase has lost its strength and aesthetic appearance, which shows the need for restoration and reconstruction of losses. The authors conducted research surveys in the field of attribution signs of the suitcase, restoration measures to recover and strengthen the elements of the suitcase in order to give it an expositional look for the theater museum. |
