EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a pair of Poleyns, dating back to the 15th century during the reign of Edward IV. The intricate construction of these pointed shoes is beautifully depicted, revealing their unique design elements. Open down the sides, they feature cross pieces that strengthen the sole for added durability. The image is taken from "British Costume during 19 Centuries" by Mrs Charles H Ashdown, published in London in 1910. It offers a glimpse into England's rich history of fashion and footwear. These Poleyns were undoubtedly worn by individuals seeking both style and functionality during this era. Emily Jessie Ashdown, the creator behind this remarkable illustration, has skillfully captured every detail with precision. Her monochrome depiction adds a timeless charm to the image, emphasizing its historical significance. As we admire this print today, it serves as a reminder of how fashion has evolved over centuries while still drawing inspiration from our past. The craftsmanship displayed in these Poleyns reflects not only the ingenuity of their creators but also provides insight into society's values and preferences at that time. Through Emily Jessie Ashdown's lens, we are transported back to fifteenth-century Britain—a country where clothes spoke volumes about one's status and identity—and reminded once again why preserving our cultural heritage is so crucial.
