The Museo Merletto had several portraits of people wearing clothing trimmed with lace. This lace overlay on the woman's bodice is both demure and somewhat daring.
Inscription on back of card:
The Museo del Merletto, founded in 1981, is on the island of Burano in the Venetian lagoon. Venice was famous for its exquisite lace in the 16th and 17th centuries. Lace-making played a major role in Venice's economy and culture until the early 19th century.
