13th Bourgeois Brocade Carries Dressed Ermine Lily Pointed Purity Richly Toes Wears
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative 13th century print, sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, captures the essence of medieval bourgeois life with an intricately detailed depiction of a well-to-do couple. The man, dressed in the height of fashion for his social standing, dons a richly textured brocade tunic, ermine fur lining his cape and cloak, and a pointed, high-toed shoe on his left foot. His regal attire signifies his affluence and status within the community. The woman, equally resplendent, cradles a lily in her hand, a symbol of purity and virtue. Her voluminous gown, adorned with intricate embroidery and beading, accentuates her elegant silhouette. The luxurious fabric cascades down to her feet, revealing her delicate toes peeking out from beneath the hem. The couple's opulent attire and refined posture exude an air of sophistication and wealth, providing a glimpse into the lives of the medieval middle class. The intricate details of their costumes, from the delicate beading to the ermine fur, offer a window into the fashion trends and craftsmanship of the time. The print, with its rich colors and intricate details, invites us to explore the history and culture of the 13th century and the lives of its people.
