The figure, depicted in a kneeling position, dons a striking black robe adorned with scarlet lining and intricate blue floral embroidery. This hand-painted copy of a 15th-century book from 1847 beautifully captures the essence of medieval fashion. The costume is believed to belong to a French dean of the merchant corporation during this era. It provides us with valuable insight into the attire worn by influential figures involved in trade and business enterprises at that time. The meticulous attention to detail, as seen in the vibrant colors and delicate embroidery, reflects the craftsmanship prevalent during the Middle Ages.
