Summary
| Description |
English: Under my own Eye. Clothing Establishment, Philadelphia, 1815. The outbreak of the War of 1812 and the appointment of Callender Irvine as Commissary General of Purchases led to the introduction of procurement procedures which lasted for many years. In the Philadelphia building specifically rented for the purpose, three cutters work in the background. Callender Irvine discusses the pattern for the front and sides of the Engineer enlisted men's coat with Francis Brown the head
of the cutting establishment. Irvine is wearing the blue general staff, single breasted coat with the embroidered buttonholes allowed general officers on thecollar only, and gilt bullet buttons. The man on the right models a coat of the Corps of Engineers enlisted musicians. |
