EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a fascinating carving from the 15th century, showcasing a woman wearing a unique horned headdress. Created in 1910 by Emily Jessie Ashdown, this image is part of her book "British Costume during 19 Centuries". The carving itself is found in Ludlow Church, Shropshire and was originally featured on a miserere. What makes this particular artwork intriguing is its satirical nature. It ridicules the medieval fashion trend of headdresses adorned with horns. This caricature serves as a reminder of how fashion can be both captivating and amusing throughout history. The intricate details of the woman's dress and headgear highlight the craftsmanship prevalent during that era. As we gaze upon this monochrome depiction, we are transported back to the Middle Ages, imagining what life was like for women in England at that time. Emily Jessie Ashdown's work not only showcases historical costume but also sheds light on religious practices during this period. The presence of such an elaborate headdress suggests that it may have held significance within Christian rituals or ceremonies. Overall, this print offers us a glimpse into the past - an opportunity to appreciate artistry while contemplating societal norms and trends from centuries ago.
