Bjarne: I have this book and it does have many color illustrations in it as well as text. It covers fashion as influenced by Stuart art and literature from c1600 to 1714, although it shows few fashions past 1700. There is an excellent section on masque costumes, most of the pictures date from 1603-1635.
Naturally, the Interregnum(1649-1660) gets little coverage. Hope this helps!
