EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1910, showcasing a pair of Norman shoes dating all the way back to the Norman Conquest of Britain in 1066. These unique footwear pieces feature cross-banded chausses, representing a significant period in British history. The image is an illustration from the book "British Costume during 19 Centuries" by Mrs Charles H Ashdown, providing us with a glimpse into the fashion trends of that era. During this medieval period, footwear underwent fascinating transformations, as seen in these Norman shoes. Twists and exaggerated pointed toes became prominent features, reflecting the evolving style preferences at that time. The monochrome aesthetic adds to the allure of this image, allowing us to focus on intricate details such as stitching patterns and materials used. Emily Jessie Ashdown beautifully captures these historical artifacts through her lens or artistic interpretation. As we admire this print today, it serves as a reminder of how clothing and accessories have evolved over centuries while also paying homage to our rich cultural heritage. Let's appreciate this remarkable piece for its historical significance rather than its commercial value or association with any particular brand or company.
