EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases the grandeur and elegance of King Richard II of England, as depicted in the Costume of King Richard II from John Lydgate's Chronicle of the Kings of England. The intricately designed short tunic, edged with luxurious fur, is a testament to the opulence of the royal court during the late Middle Ages. The tunic is belted at the hips with a girdle, adding definition to the monarch's figure. King Richard II's attire also includes pointed shoes, which were a popular fashion choice during the late 14th and early 15th centuries. The roundlet headdress adorned with a long tail and a fabric-cut crown in the form of leaves further accentuates the regal nature of the costume. The intricate details of the headdress, including the delicate leaves and the flowing tail, are expertly rendered in this handcoloured copperplate engraving. John Lydgate's Chronicle of the Kings of England, from which this image is derived, was a popular historical text during the Tudor period. The Cotton manuscript Julius EIV, housed in the British Museum, is a valuable source of information about the history of England and its monarchs. This illustration, created by Thomas Anthony Day and J.H. Dines, is a stunning representation of the rich history and culture of medieval England.
