EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a pair of exquisite Bishops slippers made from silk, dating back to the 14th century. Created by the French School, these slippers are an extraordinary example of religious and ecclesiastical attire. The photograph captures every intricate detail of the slippers' design, highlighting their delicate embroidery and ornamental features. These beautiful silk slippers were originally housed in the Saint Bertrand de Comminges Cathedral located in Haute-Garonne, France. They serve as a testament to the rich history and craftsmanship prevalent during medieval times. The fine tapestry work on these shoes reflects not only their functional purpose but also their decorative significance within clerical circles. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into medieval fashion accessories worn by male clergy members. The gothic-inspired decoration on these slippers adds an air of elegance and sophistication to any ensemble they would have adorned. It is impossible not to appreciate the level of skill required to create such intricately embroidered clothing items like these Bishops slippers. This print allows us to admire this remarkable piece of artistry that has stood the test of time.
