EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Mourning habits, 14th century" takes us back to a bygone era, specifically the reign of Edward III in the 14th century. The image showcases the somber attire worn during periods of mourning at that time. In this illustration from British Costume during 19 Centuries by Mrs Charles H Ashdown (London, 1910), we see both men and women dressed in their mourning garments. The men don tight-fitting cote-hardis, buttoned down the front with precision. Meanwhile, the women are draped in elegant cloaks and wear dresses appropriate for such solemn occasions. The image evokes a sense of grief and sorrow as it transports us to medieval England where mourning was taken seriously. Widows weeds were commonly worn during this period as a symbol of loss and remembrance. Emily Jessie Ashdown's artistic eye captures every intricate detail of these historical costumes while keeping them timeless through her monochrome presentation. This photograph not only serves as a visual record but also provides valuable insight into the fashion trends prevalent during one of England's most significant historical periods. As we gaze upon this remarkable print created by Emily Jessie Ashdown under "The Print Collector" we can't help but appreciate its ability to transport us back in time – reminding us that even centuries ago, people had their own unique ways of expressing grief and honoring those who have passed on.
