EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the 11th century, showcasing the exquisite Norman costumes of that era. In this image from Cassell's Illustrated History of England, published in 1857 and captured by Ken Welsh, we are presented with a trio of individuals dressed in regal attire. At the center stands a noble prince, his clothing adorned with intricate details and vibrant colors. His majestic presence is complemented by a princess standing beside him, radiating elegance and grace through her beautifully crafted gown. The attention to detail in their garments transports us to an age where fashion was not merely functional but also a symbol of status and power. Adding depth to this historical tableau is a crossbowman positioned on one side. Armed with his weapon, he represents the military prowess that characterized this period. Each figure embodies the essence of their respective roles within society during this fascinating epoch. Ken Welsh's archival engraving allows us to appreciate the artistry involved in creating these elaborate costumes while providing insight into the fashion trends prevalent at that time. This picture serves as both an educational resource for historians and an aesthetic delight for those captivated by ancient garb. As we gaze upon this remarkable illustration, we are reminded of how clothing can serve as more than mere fabric; it can be a reflection of culture, identity, and societal norms throughout history. Through Welsh's lens, we gain access to an enchanting world long gone yet forever preserved within these pages – an invitation to explore our past through visual storytelling.
