EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite page costumes of a lord and varlet in the 15th century. The image is an engraving in vibrant colors, reproduced from a tapestry found in the cathedral of Bern between 1440-1450. It was featured in "France et les francais a travers les centuries" a renowned publication by Augustin Challamel and F. Roy editor, Paris 1882. The Selva Collection proudly houses this remarkable piece of French history captured by an anonymous artist from the 19th century. The attention to detail is evident as every element of these medieval outfits is depicted with precision and finesse. The lord's costume exudes nobility and grandeur, adorned with rich fabrics, intricate patterns, and luxurious accessories. His regal presence commands respect while reflecting the fashion trends prevalent during that era. Standing beside him is his loyal varlet, whose attire complements that of his master but with subtle differences indicating his lower rank. Together they represent the social hierarchy that characterized medieval society. This photograph offers us a glimpse into France's past—a time when chivalry reigned supreme and elegance permeated every aspect of life. It serves as a reminder of our ancestors' creativity, craftsmanship, and their unwavering commitment to preserving their cultural heritage. Leonard de Selva has skillfully captured this historical moment through his lens, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and significance of these page costumes even centuries later.
