EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases the foppish and extravagant mens fashion of the 16th century, as depicted in two distinct representations from the era. On the left, a man dons a large felt hat adorned with multicolored plumes, a doublet with slashed sleeves, hose, and boots, all taken from a manuscript of the Roman de la Rose, Harleian 4425. This manuscript, a significant source of medieval literature and art, highlights the elaborate and ornate clothing popular during this time. On the right, Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey, is depicted in a striking ensemble. He wears a scarlet short cloak over a doublet, a flat jeweled cap, breeches, and stockings. The painting by Hans Holbein captures the Earl's refined and fashionable appearance, emphasizing the importance of dressing well as a symbol of wealth and status. The fusion of these two representations underscores the flamboyant and intricate nature of mens fashion during the 16th century. The use of vibrant colors, rich textures, and ornate details in clothing was a testament to the opulence and grandeur of the time. These foppish and dandyish styles, as seen in this image, continue to inspire modern fashion and our fascination with the history of clothing and self-expression. This handcoloured copperplate engraving, part of the Illustrations of Mediaeval Costume in England collection, offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of 16th-century fashion and serves as a reminder of the enduring allure of historical clothing and its influence on contemporary style.
