Summary "De Nederlandsche Nationale Kleederdrachten" by Theodoor Molkenboer is a comprehensive cultural study written in the early 20th century. This work focuses on the national costumes of the Netherlands, documenting the traditional dress still worn by the populace in various provinces as of the year 1916. The author aims to provide an overview of these costumes, enriched with photographs of the actual wearers, rather than staged representations, to capture the authentic essence of Dutch cultural attire. The opening of the book serves as an introduction and preface to Molkenboer's research, explaining his motivations and the importance of preserving this aspect of Dutch identity. He notes the drastic decline in the number of people wearing these traditional costumes and intends to illustrate the significance and aesthetic value of the dress as a reflection of Dutch history and culture. The text emphasizes the shifting perspectives towards these garments, portrayed as both remnants of a quaint past by some and cherished symbols of national pride by others. Throughout the beginning, Molkenboer articulates his observations and predictions regarding the fading interest in these costumes, as well as his hopes for future appreciation and understanding of this unique aspect of Dutch heritage.
