The image, part of the "Costumes Civils et Militaires des Francais a Travers Les Siecles" collection, showcases the intricate fashion and style prevalent during this era. The focal point is undoubtedly the French lord himself, adorned in an opulent cloak that exudes power and authority.

The attention to detail in their clothing highlights the importance placed on appearance during this period. As we delve into this snapshot of history, we are reminded of the significance of clothing as a symbol of social status and identity.
