It’s so great to see so many museum exhibitions focusing on menswear!
This exhibition on ties will be on in Switzerland from September 2014 through January 2015.

Do you know who the portrait is of?
Sadly, I don’t! It’s just from their website announcement of the exhibition, and they don’t seem to have a very easy to navigate online collection. If you’re interested in portraits from that time period, there’s one on this blog somewhere (look in the tag “neckties”) – and let me know, I can post more!
