A commercial for Barney Men’s Department Store. Beginning with a montage of classical British portraits through time, the men in the paintings wear stylish period clothes. The montage ends with a ‘modern man’ dressed in English Style menswear. He unbuttons his jacket and sits down opens a book and strikes a pose, and the frame becomes a still sepia image with Barney’s English Room supper-imposed over it.
