EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "King and Court, late 13th-14th century" takes us back to the medieval era of England. The image showcases the regal figure of a king surrounded by his courtiers, dressed in exquisite medieval attire. The focus is on the King himself, adorned with a majestic crown that signifies his authority and power. The central piece of clothing that catches our attention is the Court-pie worn by one of the courtiers. This short garment was specifically designed for cold weather, featuring a circular shape with a hole in the center for easy wearability. Its distinct feature lies in its two or more colors, hence earning it the name "pie" or "pied". It adds an element of vibrancy to this otherwise monochrome scene. The details captured in this illustration are remarkable - from the intricate chain mail armor worn by knights to their gloves and hoods protecting them from wintry conditions. A falcon perched on one knight's arm symbolizes their connection with nature and hunting prowess. Emily Jessie Ashdown's artistic talent shines through as she brings this historical period to life through her work. Her portrayal transports us back centuries ago when kings ruled over vast lands and courts were filled with splendorous pageantry. This print serves as a visual time capsule, reminding us of England's rich history during Edward II's reign (1272-1307) while also showcasing Mrs Charles H Ashdown's expertise in capturing every detail authentically.
