EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Henry V the Great, Count of Luxembourg (1216-1281): A Regal Figure in 14th-Century French Fashion" Henry V the Great, Count of Luxembourg (1216-1281), is depicted in this exquisite handcolored copperplate engraving by Leopold Massard, drawn from the renowned work "French Costumes from King Clovis to Our Days." This image offers a glimpse into the opulent fashion and regal bearing of a significant medieval figure. The Count of Luxembourg is shown wearing a richly decorated robe, adorned with intricate patterns and vibrant colors, symbolizing his high rank and wealth. The mantelet, a long, hooded cloak, draped over his shoulders adds an air of grandeur and protection. Henry's bonnet, a tall, conical hat, is a hallmark of 14th-century French fashion. His hood, worn low over his brow, conceals his identity, a common practice among the nobility of the time. Henry's shoes, featuring pointed toes and high heels, are a testament to the intricate detail and craftsmanship of medieval footwear. A purse, slung over his shoulder, and a belt, cinched at his waist, complete his ensemble. The Count's expression conveys a sense of authority and confidence, reflecting his significant role in European politics during the late Middle Ages. As a powerful ruler, Henry played a crucial part in the crusades and the establishment of the Luxembourg dynasty. This stunning handcolored copperplate engraving not only showcases the fashion trends of the 14th century but also offers a window into the life and legacy of an influential medieval figure. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring Henry V the Great to life, making this an essential piece for any collection focusing on medieval history, fashion, or art.
