EDITORS COMMENTS
In this 12th-century image from Mary Evans Prints Online, we are transported back in time to witness the striking contrast between the attire of a humble laborer and a wealthy Jew. The laborer, dressed in the garb of the common man during this era, dons a Phrygian cap, a hooded tunic hitched up to reveal long stockings and short boots. The cap, originating from ancient Phrygia, was a symbol of freedom and was often worn by slaves who had gained their freedom. The hooded tunic, or cotehardie, was a typical garment for the working class, allowing for ease of movement while performing manual labor. On the other hand, the rich Jew, adorned in opulence, wears a conical hat with a brim, a mantle pinned with a magnificent brooch, a super-tunic, a girdle, and a pouch. The conical hat, or pileus, was a sign of high status and was often worn by the clergy and the wealthy. The mantle, a cloak-like garment, was an essential part of the medieval wardrobe, providing both warmth and protection. The brooch, a symbol of wealth and status, was often worn pinned to the mantle. The super-tunic, or surcoat, was worn over the tunic and was often embroidered or decorated with intricate designs, indicating the wearer's wealth and status. The girdle, or cinture, was used to hold up the tunic and the pouch, or sacoc, was used to carry essential items. This striking image offers a glimpse into the fashion and class distinctions of the 12th century, providing us with a fascinating insight into the lives of the laboring class and the wealthy elite.
