EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcolored engraving depicts Sir Thomas Gresham, an English financier and statesman of the late 16th century, as depicted in a portrait by the renowned artist Hans Holbein the Younger. The intricately detailed illustration showcases the elegant and elaborate male costume of the reign of Henry VIII, a period known for its grandeur and opulence. Sir Thomas' attire consists of a slashed jacket, featuring broad, deep sleeves and a high standing collar, which was a common fashion during the Tudor era. The jacket is adorned with intricate gold lace and embroidery, adding to its grandeur. A long, flowing cape, also embellished with gold lace, is draped over his shoulders, providing both warmth and an air of sophistication. Underneath the jacket, Sir Thomas wears a ruff, a high, starched collar that was a mandatory accessory for formal attire during this time. The trousers, which are tucked into square-toed, high-heeled shoes, are simple in comparison to the extravagant upper garments. A simple hat, with a wide brim and a small point at the front, completes the ensemble. This illustration, from the "Civil Costume of England from the Conquest to the Present Period," was drawn by Charles Martin and etched by Leopold Martin. The Martins were the sons of the renowned romantic artist and mezzotint engraver, John Martin. The costumes were meticulously drawn from various sources, including tapestries, monumental effigies, illuminated manuscripts, and portraits, providing an accurate and detailed representation of the fashion of the time. This illustration offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich and intricate world of Tudor fashion and serves as a testament to the artistic skill and dedication of the Martins.
