EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Historic England Photo Library transports us back in time to Mucking, Essex during the Anglo-Saxon era. The beautifully detailed reconstruction drawing by Judith Dobie, a member of the English Heritage Graphics Team, showcases an Anglo-Saxon woman known as N090545. Dressed in traditional attire, this remarkable female figure exudes elegance and grace. She is depicted wearing a peplos, a simple yet sophisticated garment that drapes gracefully over her body. The peplos is complemented by a striking striped cloak or wrap fastened with an intricately designed pin. This ensemble not only reflects the fashion trends of that era but also highlights the craftsmanship and attention to detail prevalent among Anglo-Saxons. Grave 975 serves as a poignant reminder of our ancestors' rich cultural heritage and provides valuable insights into their way of life. Through this image, we can imagine how women like N090545 would have carried themselves with dignity and poise amidst their vibrant community. The expertise demonstrated by both Judith Dobie and the English Heritage Graphics Team shines through in this graphic representation.
