EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a French costume from the Capetian dynasty, dating back to the 10th and 11th centuries. The image is an engraving taken from "The History Of Fashion In France" by Augustin Challamel, Frances Cashel Hoey, and John Lillie in 1882. The Capetian dynasty was a prominent line of French kings who reigned for over three centuries until 1328. This illustration offers us a glimpse into the fashion of that era, highlighting the exquisite attire worn by monarchs and queens during this period. Intricately designed robes adorned with vibrant colors dominate the scene, symbolizing regality and power. A majestic crown sits atop the head of the queen, emphasizing her status as royalty. The attention to detail in this artwork transports us back to medieval France when such garments were prevalent. This print not only captures historical clothing but also represents an important chapter in French history. It serves as a reminder of how fashion has evolved over time while reflecting on cultural heritage and traditions. With its rich symbolism and artistic craftsmanship, this print allows us to appreciate both the beauty of medieval fashion and gain insights into one of Europe's most influential dynasties – all preserved through the lens of Augustin Challamel, Frances Cashel Hoey, John Lillie, and their collaborators at Heritage Images.
