EDITORS COMMENTS
Pierre Rogiers, a renowned troubadour and musician of the 12th century, is depicted in this exquisite handcolored copperplate drawing and engraving by Leopold Massard. The intricately detailed image transports us back in time to the medieval era, showcasing the elegant and ornate fashion of the period. Pierre Rogiers is depicted wearing a tall, conical hat adorned with gold buttons, which was a common headpiece for troubadours during this time. His tunic, cinched at the waist with a gold belt, features long, flowing sleeves and a high neckline. Over the tunic, he wears a cape, which is fastened at the neck and falls gracefully to the ground. His hose, or tight-fitting leg coverings, are held up by garters and are adorned with intricate gold designs. The meticulous attention to detail in this engraving is truly awe-inspiring. The gold buttons on Pierre Rogiers' hat and belt, as well as the intricate designs on his hose, are all rendered with incredible precision. The use of handcoloring adds an additional layer of depth and richness to the image, bringing the vibrant colors of the medieval era to life. This image is taken from the book "French Costumes from King Clovis to Our Days," published by Massard, Mifliez, in Paris in 1834. The book was a groundbreaking work in the field of costume history, and this engraving of Pierre Rogiers is a testament to the exceptional craftsmanship and historical accuracy that defined the publication. As we gaze upon this image of Pierre Rogiers, we are transported back to the medieval era, where the art of troubadour music flourished and the fashion was a reflection of the opulence and grandeur of the time. This engraving serves as a reminder of the rich history and cultural traditions that have shaped our world, and the enduring allure of the past.
