EDITORS COMMENTS
This image transport us back to the medieval era of Italy, specifically the year 1380. The subject of the photograph is an intricately detailed depiction of a man donning a richly decorated Italian costume, designed to be worn beneath armor. The outfit consists of parti-colored soled hose, a gipon or doublet, and an array of buckles. The hose, which are divided into distinct sections of color, are worn with high, fitted waistbands and feature decorative lacing. The gipon or doublet is a tight-fitting garment, often without sleeves or featuring short raglan sleeves, designed to be worn close to the body to allow for ease of movement under armor. The man is also adorned with various accessories, including a skull cap, a spear, a sword, a lance, and gauntlets. The skull cap, a common headpiece during this time, is embellished with intricate designs and features a prominent skull motif. The spear and sword are essential weapons of the time, while the lance was used in mounted combat. The gauntlets, protective coverings for the hands, are adorned with intricate designs and buckles. The man's attire is a testament to the intricate detail and craftsmanship of Italian textiles during the late medieval period. The use of vibrant colors and intricate designs reflects the wealth and status of the wearer. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich history of Italian costume and the armor-wearing traditions of the medieval era.
