The engraving is an illustration for the renowned book "Manners, Customs, and Dress during the Middle Ages" by Paul Lacroix.

The facsimile of engravings on wood designed and engraved by J Amman in the sixteenth century adds an authentic touch to this digitally cleaned image. The clasp-maker's expertise is evident as he meticulously shapes metal pieces with skillful precision.
