EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 15th century print, dated 1461, captures the opulence and grandeur of aristocratic life during the medieval period. The image features an aristocrat and his wife, both richly dressed in the fashion of the time. The man wears a fine brocade tunic, adorned with intricate patterns and ornate detailing, while a sign of his high status is evident in the luxurious fur-lined cloak draped over his shoulders. His wife, equally affluent, dons an elegant farthingale gown, accentuated by a delicate necklace and intricate headdress. The woman's most striking feature, however, is her engagement in a leisurely activity - reading a book. In a time when literacy was a privilege, this sign of intellectual pursuits further underscores the couple's wealth and status. The book, bound in fine leather and adorned with gold embellishments, adds to the overall grandeur of the scene. The intricate details of their costumes are a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of the era. The man's tunic, with its intricate brocade patterns and ornate detailing, would have taken weeks, if not months, to create. Similarly, the woman's farthingale gown, with its voluminous skirt and fitted bodice, would have required the expertise of skilled tailors and seamstresses. This print offers a glimpse into the lives of the aristocracy during the 15th century, a time of opulence, luxury, and refinement. The couple's richly dressed attire, the woman's intellectual pursuits, and the overall ornate detailing of the print serve as a reminder of the grandeur and sophistication of the past.
