EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Habit of an English Page in the Reign of Edward VI" takes us back to 16th century England during the rule of King Edward VI. The image, part of a private collection, showcases the intricate and detailed fashion worn by an English page during this period. The young boy depicted in the print is dressed in a stylish doublet and breeches, adorned with a feathered hat that adds a touch of elegance to his ensemble. He carries both a sword and dagger, securely fastened within their scabbards. The attention to detail is remarkable, as every aspect of his clothing reflects the fashion trends popularized by renowned artists such as Holbein, Vandyke, Hollar, and others. This illustration was originally featured in "Recueil des Habillements de Differentes Nations" published by Thomas Jefferys in London in 1757. It offers us a glimpse into not only English fashion but also European styles prevalent at that time. The engraving transports us back to an era when clothing played a significant role in expressing one's social status and identity. It serves as a reminder of how historical artifacts like this can provide valuable insights into our cultural heritage. As we admire this exquisite piece from Fine Art Finder's Rosenberg Collection, let it serve as inspiration for appreciating the artistry behind centuries-old garments while reflecting on how they shape our understanding of history today.
