The Robing from Everyman - A Captivating Glimpse into the Allegorical Drama of the Late Middle Ages
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This enchanting print captures a mesmerizing scene from "The Robing" an allegorical drama that emerged during the late Middle Ages. Published by Chapman & Hall in 1925, this exquisite colour lithograph brings to life the intricate costumes and captivating characters of this timeless morality play. Created by renowned artist John Austen (1886-1948), this artwork showcases his mastery in capturing every detail with precision and finesse. The art deco influence is evident in the elegant dressing and manner of beardsley, adding a touch of sophistication to this historical illustration. As we delve into this image, we are transported back to circa 1500, immersing ourselves in a world where virtue and vice collide on stage. The characters' elaborate costumes reflect their roles as archetypes representing various moral qualities. Each garment tells its own story, intricately woven with symbolism that invites us to ponder upon our own virtues and vices. This remarkable piece not only serves as a visual delight but also offers us a glimpse into an era when morality plays held great significance for society's understanding of right and wrong. It reminds us that even centuries later, these timeless themes continue to resonate within our collective consciousness. Displayed here courtesy of Bridgeman Images, this private collection print allows us to appreciate Austen's artistic brilliance while celebrating the enduring legacy of medieval drama.
