The attention to detail is remarkable as we see him donning a banded Phrygian cap, adding an air of elegance and sophistication to his attire. His cloak made of embroidered blue cloth drapes gracefully over his shoulders, while a green embroidered tunica adds a touch of color and flair. The artist's choice of red stockings with yellow cross-garters creates a striking contrast against the rest of his ensemble. Every element in this illustration from British Costume during 19 Centuries has been carefully crafted to transport us into medieval times.
