EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative 8th century Anglo-Saxon image, an nobleman of distinguished rank is depicted in the regal splendor of his courtly attire. The nobleman's forked beard, a symbol of wisdom and maturity in Anglo-Saxon culture, frames a face etched with the lines of experience and authority. He wears a green mantle, a versatile garment that served both as a cloak and a symbol of status, fastened with a large, intricately-designed brooch. The mantle is draped over a blue roc or super-tunic, a long-sleeved garment with a fitted bodice and a full, flowing skirt. Beneath the roc, the nobleman dons a long, gold tunic, a luxurious and costly item that would have been worn only by the most affluent members of Anglo-Saxon society. The nobleman's posture is confident and regal, as he sits bolstered on a chair, his hands resting on his knees, ready to preside over the affairs of his kingdom. The intricate details of his costume, from the intricate brooch to the richly-dyed fabric, speak to the wealth and craftsmanship of the Anglo-Saxon court, and transport us back to a time of grandeur and nobility. This image offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of Anglo-Saxon nobility, and the rich tapestry of their culture and history.
