EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the XIV Siecle, where we catch a glimpse of a French peasant in his traditional attire. The engraving, created by an anonymous French School artist in the 19th century, showcases the meticulous attention to detail that was characteristic of this era. The image is part of a private collection and was originally featured as an illustration for "Costumes Francais depuis Clovis jusqu'a nos jours" by A Mifliez, published in Paris in 1835. It offers us a fascinating insight into the historical fashion trends that prevailed during this period. The peasant depicted here represents the humble yet resilient spirit of rural France. His costume reflects both practicality and style, with its loose-fitting tunic adorned with intricate patterns and accompanied by sturdy boots. This ensemble not only protected him from the elements but also showcased his cultural identity. As we delve into this snapshot from history, we are reminded of how clothing has always played a significant role in expressing one's social status and cultural heritage. The simplicity yet elegance of this XIV Siecle paysan's outfit speaks volumes about French culture at that time. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, we can now appreciate this remarkable piece of artistry which captures not only the appearance but also the essence of France's rich historical tapestry.
