Is the woman wearing a cast on her arm? That has to be a first for an oldie in this forum, what?

Cheers,

Hi China,

Do you know I had never noticed it before but it certainly looks like one. Did they have casts in those days ? They were a wealthy family so would have been able to afford one will have to post this round the family.

And thanks to genechaser for cleaning it up.

I don't think that it is a plaster cast , It's just an undergarment same as the othere ladies have.

You could be right it is just that it comes right down over her hand to the top of her finger, where on the others it comes down to their wrists.

Heres my try
 I think it is a cast on her arm and I think she got the kitten as a get well gift. but then I am a romantic at heart

If it's an undershirt, how come she isn't wearing the same thing on her other arm, then?

Plaster of Paris casts date back to about the 1850s.
