EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored engraving, titled 'Civil Costume of England from the Conquest to the Present Period,' depicts male fashion during the reign of Henry VII (1485-1509), meticulously drawn by Charles Martin and etched by Leopold Martin. The image is a testament to the intricate and elaborate clothing styles of the Tudor era, showcasing the refined tastes and opulence of the English court. Charles and Leopold Martin were renowned artists and engravers, known for their exceptional talent in capturing historical detail. Their work was based on primary sources, including tapestries, monumental effigies, illuminated manuscripts, and portraits. This engraving is a product of their dedication to preserving the rich heritage of English fashion history. The sons of the romantic artist and mezzotint engraver John Martin (1789-1854), Charles and Leopold carried on their family's artistic legacy. Their work was published by Henry Bohn in London in 1842, providing a visual record of English costume history for generations to come. The male figure in this engraving is dressed in a high-waisted doublet, fitted at the waist and flared at the hips, with a voluminous, pleated skirt. The doublet is fastened with laces at the front and is worn over a linen shirt and hose. A fur-trimmed cloak, known as a mantle, is draped over the shoulders, adding an air of grandeur to the ensemble. The intricate details of the fabric textures, patterns, and embellishments are beautifully rendered, offering a glimpse into the fashionable attire of the Tudor court during the reign of Henry VII.
