EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite print depicts Joan Pickering, later known as Lady Gascoigne, the second wife of Sir William Gascoigne, who served as Chief Justice of the King's Bench during the reign of King Henry V. The portrait offers a fascinating glimpse into the fashion and elegance of contemporary women's attire during the late medieval period. Sir William Gascoigne, a distinguished jurist and diplomat, married Joan Pickering around 1429. This image captures Joan in her prime, wearing a richly decorated gown that reflects her noble status. The dress features a fitted bodice, adorned with intricate embroidery and delicate lace, which cinches at the waist to accentuate her figure. The voluminous skirt, draped over a farthingale, is also embellished with elaborate patterns and textures, creating an impression of grandeur and sophistication. The headdress, worn high on her head, is a testament to the elaborate hairstyles popular during the late medieval era. It is adorned with pearls, precious stones, and intricate goldwork, further emphasizing Joan's wealth and high social standing. Her veil, draped over her shoulders, adds an air of mystery and allure. As the wife of the Chief Justice of the King's Bench, Joan would have been an influential figure in the royal court. Her elegant and refined appearance in this portrait underscores the importance of fashion and personal presentation in medieval society, as well as the role of women in shaping the cultural landscape of the time. This print, which dates from the late medieval period, is a valuable historical record of the fashion and social customs of the time.
