EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image transports us back to the medieval world of Germany around the year 1425. The man in the foreground wears a sleeveless, fur-lined and trimmed garment, which was a popular choice among the German nobility during this period. The loose-fitting tunic is cinched at the waist with a belt, and he wears hose, which are tight-fitting leggings that extend above the knee and are often held up by garters. His feet are adorned with piked shoes, also known as cracowes, which feature upturned toes and high heels. Atop his head, he dons a dagged cap, a common headdress for men of the nobility during this time. The woman in the background is equally elegantly dressed. She wears a long mantle, a versatile garment that could be worn as a cloak or draped over the shoulders as a shawl. The border of her mantle is dagged, meaning it is adorned with fringes or fabric ruffles. She also wears a veil, which was a sign of modesty and respectability for women of the nobility. Her headdress is topped with a cloak, which is secured with a brooch, and she wears poulaines, which are pointed-toed shoes that were popular among women during this period. This photograph offers a glimpse into the opulent and intricate world of German nobility during the late Middle Ages. The intricate details of their clothing, from the fur trimmings to the dagged borders, speak to the wealth and status of those depicted. The image also serves as a reminder of the rich history and cultural traditions that have shaped Europe over the centuries.
