EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the noble costumes of the 15th century, as depicted in an engraving by Joseph Strutt. The image captures the elegance and grandeur of this historical period, offering a glimpse into the fashion choices of people of rank during that time. In one scene, a man is seen wearing a long-sleeved mantle with a feather fan, exuding an air of sophistication and refinement. Standing beside him is a woman adorned in a robe and apron embellished with giant gemstones, radiating opulence and luxury. This particular attire can be found in Harley MS 4425's "Guillaume de Lorris and Jean de Meun's Roman de la rose" from 1490. Another striking depiction portrays a lady known as Jeunesse donning an elaborate hennin headdress while accompanied by a kneeling youth who represents the poet. The young man wears an embroidered doublet with fur-lined sleeves, showcasing both artistry and warmth. Handcoloured by Joseph Strutt himself, this engraving comes from his renowned work titled "Complete View of the Dress and Habits of the People of England". Published in London in 1842 by Henry Bohn, it offers valuable insights into English fashion history. This remarkable print transports us back to the splendorous world of 15th-century nobility. It serves as both an educational tool for those interested in historical costume design and as a beautiful piece to adorn any art lover's collection.
