EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 15th century, showcasing a detailed illustration of male costume from that era. Titled "The berretino and poleyn" this image is part of the collection "British Costume during 19 Centuries" by Mrs Charles H Ashdown, published in London in 1910. In this particular example, we see a man donning traditional English attire. The focal point lies on his headwear, known as the berretino, which is skillfully carried with its hanging becca. This unique hat adds an element of elegance and sophistication to his ensemble. Moving down towards his feet, we observe another intriguing feature - the poleyns. These shoes were specially designed to maintain their shape while walking by being stiffened and padded. Such attention to detail highlights the importance placed on both fashion and functionality during medieval times. Emily Jessie Ashdown's artistic rendition beautifully captures every intricate aspect of this historical costume. The monochrome aesthetic enhances the vintage appeal of the image, transporting viewers into a different time period altogether. As we delve into history through this remarkable print, it serves as a reminder of how clothing can reflect not only personal style but also societal norms and technological advancements prevalent at any given time.
