EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating engraving titled "Sir Neil Loring in robe decorated with garters" takes us back to the 15th century, offering a glimpse into the life of an esteemed medieval English soldier and diplomat. Sir Neil Loring, also known as Nigel Lorringe, was not only a prominent figure but also one of the founding members of the prestigious Order of the Garter. In this artwork, we see an elderly man adorned in a white robe embellished with intricate blue garters. His red cap and shoes add a touch of vibrancy to his attire. With one hand holding onto a purse, Sir Neil Loring exudes both wisdom and wealth. This enchanting engraving is derived from Joseph Strutt's "Complete View of the Dress and Habits of the People of England" published in London in 1842. Handcolored by Strutt himself, it showcases his meticulous attention to detail. As we admire this piece, we are transported back in time to witness not only Sir Neil Loring's regal appearance but also gain insight into medieval fashion trends. The image offers us a window into British history while reminding us that even centuries later, art continues to captivate our imagination.
