EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored copperplate print depicts a French noblewoman from the 14th century, drawn and engraved by Leopold Massard for the publication "French Costumes from King Clovis to Our Days." The noblewoman's intricately woven mesh headdress adorned with delicate flowers and pearls sits low on her head, framing her elegant face with soft tendrils of hair cascading down her shoulders. Her dress, a low-cut design, reveals a hint of décolletage, accentuating her refined neckline. The rich fabric, likely made of velvet or brocade, is adorned with intricate patterns and embellishments, reflecting the opulence and wealth of the noble class during this period. The meticulous attention to detail in the engraving and handcoloring showcases the artistry and craftsmanship of the time. This print offers a glimpse into the fashion and beauty standards of the medieval era, providing a valuable historical record of the elegance and sophistication of French nobility during the 14th century.
