EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, dated 1590, showcases an affluent London merchant and his wife, elegantly dressed for their social sphere. The merchant, with a distinguished air, dons a fur-lined gown, a fashionable choice for warmth and status during this era. The gown features hanging sleeves, which were popular among the merchant class, and cut-fingered pumps that reveal a hint of the wearer's wealth. Atop his head, he wears a low-crowned hat, a practical choice for the bustling streets of London. His wife, equally resplendent, graces the scene in a tall-crowned copotain hat, a fashionable headpiece that accentuates her regal presence. Her attire consists of a yellow kirtle, a fitted undergarment, and a pink gown, which was a popular color combination for women's clothing during this time. The copotain hat, with its distinctive conical shape and elaborate decorations, was a symbol of high status and prosperity. The couple's attire reflects the opulence and sophistication of late Elizabethan London, where fashion and social standing were closely intertwined. The image offers a glimpse into the lives of the prosperous merchants and their families, who played a vital role in the economic and cultural fabric of the city. This evocative print, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a captivating window into the past and the world of London's elite in the late 16th century.
