EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a French nobleman dressed in the exquisite costume of the 14th century. The image captures him in a moment of prayer, kneeling with utmost reverence. His attire is truly remarkable, featuring a soubreveste - a tunic that covers his armor - adorned with an emblematic lion symbol. The silver armor he wears exudes strength and power, while the steel poleyns protect his knees during battle. What makes this particular print even more fascinating is its origin. Created around 1847, it is a hand-painted copy of a 14th-century library manuscript. It draws inspiration from contemporary manuscripts, paintings, and monuments to accurately depict the fashion of the Middle Ages. The photo transports us back to an era filled with nobility and chivalry. It offers us a glimpse into the life of French aristocracy during the late 14th century when plate armor was commonly worn by soldiers and combat troops.

It serves as a reminder of how clothing played an essential role in defining social status and identity during medieval times. Overall, this print beautifully encapsulates both historical significance and artistic craftsmanship – making it an intriguing piece for any history or art enthusiast to admire.
