EDITORS COMMENTS
This image transports us back to the 1650s, an era of opulence and grandeur in Germany, as depicted in this striking photograph of noblemen. The men, dressed in the height of fashion, exude an air of sophistication and wealth. At the base of their attire are their footwear - bucket-top boots and boot hose tops, adorned with intricate roses and other decorative elements. These shoes were a symbol of status and were often worn with knee-length hose, which were held up by suspenders or frogs. The noblemen wear doublets, a fitted jacket with a pointed front, which were popular during this time. Their side-fastening breeches, which were held up by buckles, complete the look of their lower bodies. Over their doublets, they wear Brandenburg coats, which were long, flowing garments with lapels and cuffs, often worn as an outer layer for formal occasions. Accessories such as ruffs and lace falling collars add an extra layer of elegance to their outfits. Some men also wear capes or overcoats for added warmth and protection. The aristocrats in this photograph embody the essence of the German nobility during the 1650s. With their fashionable attire, they represent a time of prosperity and refinement. This photograph is a testament to the rich history and culture of the German nobility during this period, offering a glimpse into the past through its intricate details and stunning visual appeal.
