Seventh plate of album with 60 19th-century costume plates and 1 drawing of mostly women's historical costumes, featuring a variety of designs for traditional costumes from different parts of the world, as well as costumes for literary characters. This plate consists of a dancing woman wearing a costume for Estudiantina, made up of a short-sleeved jacket and a calf-length skirt, both purple and with light blue linings, with a white ruff collar and white ruffs under the sleeves and the skirt, and a matching purple cape with light blue lining. She wears a bell-shaped purple hat on her head, adorned with a silver pin, and her hands, covered with purple gloves, hold a wooden tambourine. Her legs are covered by purple stockings and her feet with purple low-heeled shoes with light blue ruffled details.
