The Dorothea June Grossbart
Historic Costume Collection
This demonstration project provides
digital images and descriptions of the Dorothea June Grossbart Historic
Costume Collection. The physical collection contains over 400 garments
and accessories from the 19th and 20th centuries, and is curated by the
Fashion Design and Merchandising Area of the Department of Art and Art
History in the College
of Fine Performing, and Communication Arts (CFPCA).
The WSU Library System and CFPCA are participating
jointly in this project to develop digital images and descriptions for
the purposes of historic record, observation, instruction, research and
analysis. The project will demonstrate the creation of metadata and digital
images in order to preserve the physical costumes and to increase access
via the Web.
