This print from Historic England showcases the reconstruction drawing of an Anglo-Saxon woman named N090544, discovered in Mucking, Essex. Created by Judith Dobie and the English Heritage Graphics Team, this illustration beautifully depicts a female figure adorned in a tubular gown or peplos fastened with two exquisite brooches. The attention to detail is remarkable, capturing the essence of Anglo-Saxon fashion and offering us a glimpse into the past. The woman's attire reflects her status and taste for elegance during that era. The tubular gown gracefully drapes around her body, emphasizing her feminine silhouette while exuding an air of sophistication. The meticulously crafted brooches serve as both functional accessories and decorative elements, adding a touch of opulence to her ensemble.
