EDITORS COMMENTS
John Gyniford and his wife Margaret, depicted in this 1842 engraving by Joseph Strutt, exude an air of elegance and prosperity. The couple is shown holding hands, symbolizing their strong bond and unity. John proudly displays a large tasseled purse of gold in his left hand, representing their generous donation to St Albans Abbey. Dressed in elaborate attire befitting their status as benefactors to the abbey, John wears a chaplet headdress and a doublet embroidered at the collar and hem. He adorns six rings on his fingers while Margaret wears two. Their lavish clothing reflects not only their wealth but also their commitment to supporting religious institutions. This image is taken from the Golden Book of St Albans, specifically Cotton Nero MS D vii. Handcolored by Strutt himself, it showcases his meticulous attention to detail and skill as an engraver. The print offers us a glimpse into the fashion trends prevalent during the fifteenth century when this scene takes place. It serves as a valuable historical document that captures both the sartorial choices of the time period and highlights John Gyniford's philanthropic endeavors. Preserved within private collections until now, this exquisite piece allows us to appreciate not only its artistic merit but also gain insight into the lives of individuals who played significant roles in shaping history.
