EDITORS COMMENTS
In this handcolored copperplate engraving, we behold the portrait of Renaud of Saint-Vincent, a bourgeois of Senlis, who lived during the late 13th century. The image, drawn and engraved by the renowned artist Leopold Massard, is an exquisite representation of medieval fashion and the elegance of the French aristocracy during that era. Renaud is depicted wearing a long tunic, which was a common garment for the bourgeoisie during the Middle Ages. The tunic, made of wool or linen, reaches down to his ankles and is fastened at the waist with a belt. Over the tunic, he wears a simar, a type of outer garment that was popular in northern Europe during the late Middle Ages. The simar is made of heavier fabric, such as wool, and is open at the front, revealing the tunic beneath. Renaud's hood, which is pulled forward to cover his head and neck, is a distinctive feature of his attire. The hood is lined with fur, which was a sign of wealth and status during the medieval period. He also wears a hat, which is placed on top of the hood. The hat, which is shaped like a cone, is a common headgear for the bourgeoisie and nobility during the late Middle Ages. In the background, we see a chapel, which is a reminder of Renaud's religious affiliations. The chapel, with its pointed arches and Gothic architecture, is a testament to the artistic and architectural achievements of the Middle Ages. This beautiful handcolored copperplate engraving is a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing us with a glimpse into the fashion, culture, and history of medieval France. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring Renaud of Saint-Vincent to life, allowing us to connect with the past in a meaningful way.
