EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases German costumes from the 15th and 16th centuries, as depicted by artist Edward May in 1849. The image features a diverse range of individuals representing different occupations and social statuses during that time period. In the foreground stands a chief magistrate of Cologne, resplendent in his official garments from 1572. His attire exudes authority and power, reflecting the importance of his role in governing the city. Next to him is an executioner of Cologne, dressed in somber black attire that symbolizes his grim profession. Moving towards the center, we see a messenger from Raguse wearing clothing typical of the 16th century. He carries important messages across great distances, embodying both speed and reliability. Finally, on the right side of the print stands a judicial messenger donning traditional garb from the 15th century. Edward May's lithography brilliantly captures these historical figures with meticulous attention to detail and vibrant colors. This particular version was based on original images from the 15th and 16th centuries but adapted for a nineteenth-century audience. The print offers us a glimpse into Germany's rich cultural heritage while also shedding light on various professions that were integral to society during this era. It serves as both an educational tool for understanding historical fashion trends and an artistic representation of Germany's past.
