EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph, created by Dr. Jakob Heinrich von Hefner-Alteneck in 1889, showcases intricately detailed shoes and costumes from the mid-15th century. The image on the left features a man dressed in a long cassock, accessorized with a pair of Cracows - high, pointed shoes with a distinctive turned-up toe. Cracows were popular among the upper classes during the late Middle Ages and were often decorated with elaborate designs. On the right, a woman is depicted wearing a long, flowing dress and Poulaines - shoes characterized by their long, pointed toes and narrow waists. These shoes were a fashion statement for women during the 15th century, often reaching lengths of over two feet. This illustration is taken from Hefner-Alteneck's extensive work, "Costumes, Artworks and Appliances from the Middle Ages to the 17th Century," which was published in Frankfurt. Hefner-Alteneck was a renowned German museum curator, archaeologist, art historian, illustrator, and etcher. His meticulous research and illustrations have provided valuable insights into the fashion and art of the Middle Ages and the early modern period. The intricate details of the shoes and costumes in this chromolithograph offer a glimpse into the opulence and elegance of the mid-15th century, providing a fascinating window into a bygone era. The rich colors and textures of the illustration bring the history of these intriguing garments and footwear to life, making it a must-see for anyone with an interest in fashion history or the Middle Ages.
