EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed coloured engraving captures the elegance and opulence of ladies of rank during the 15th and 16th centuries. The print, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, showcases a satirical depiction of these noble women and their extravagant headdresses. The illustration was originally featured in Joseph Strutt's book "Dress and Habits of the People of England" published in 1842. It offers a fascinating glimpse into the fashion trends prevalent during this period, with contemporary hand colouring adding to its allure. The women portrayed here are adorned in elaborate gowns that reflect both English and German influences. Their conical headdresses, towering high above their heads, serve as symbols of status and wealth. These exaggerated headpieces were popular among European nobility at the time. Through this artwork, we can appreciate not only the intricate details of their attire but also gain insight into societal norms and expectations surrounding fashion during medieval times. The House of Tudor is particularly prominent within this image, representing Great Britain's royal lineage. Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection has preserved this piece for us to admire today. It serves as a visual reminder of how clothing played a significant role in expressing power, social standing, and cultural identity throughout history.
