EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a detailed close-up of a man's armoured glove, dating back to the late 16th or early 17th century. Crafted from heavy buff leather, this ornate piece is an exquisite example of fashion and style during that era. The intricate decoration on the glove is truly remarkable. With its scalloped edges and interlocking patterns, it exudes elegance and sophistication. The pinked details add a touch of refinement to this already impressive accessory. Armour was not only functional but also served as a symbol of status and power for men in those times. This gauntlet demonstrates the meticulous craftsmanship that went into creating such protective gear while maintaining a sense of aesthetic appeal. As we delve into history through this image, we catch a glimpse of the fashion choices made by gentlemen centuries ago. This particular glove would have been part of an ensemble worn by men who wished to display their wealth and taste in clothing. Preserved at the Fashion Museum Bath, this photograph allows us to appreciate the artistry behind historical garments like these gloves. It serves as a reminder that even everyday accessories can be transformed into works of art when crafted with skillful hands and attention to detail.
