EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored engraving, titled 'Civil Costume of England from the Conquest to the Present Period,' depicts the male costume of the time of Henry VI, spanning the years 1422 to 1461. The image was meticulously drawn by Charles Martin and expertly etched by his father Leopold Martin. The Martins were renowned artists and engravers, known for their romantic and intricate works. The costume, drawn from various sources including tapestries, monumental effigies, illuminated manuscripts, and portraits, showcases the fashion of the late medieval period in England. Henry VI's reign was marked by political instability and the Wars of the Roses, and this is reflected in the ornate yet practical design of the male attire. The figure wears a long, fitted tunic with a high neckline and long, wide sleeves. The tunic is belted at the waist and features a large, decorative collar. Over the tunic is a long, flowing robe, also belted at the waist, with intricate patterns and designs adorning the hem. The man also wears a coif, a close-fitting linen cap, and a pair of hose, or tight-fitting leggings, held up by a girdle. The Martins' attention to detail is evident in the intricate patterns and textures of the fabric, as well as the realistic rendering of the man's facial features and posture. The use of handcoloring adds depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a stunning representation of English fashion during the time of Henry VI.
