EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored engraving, titled "Costume of the Time of William the Conqueror" from the series "Civil Costume of England from the Conquest to the Present Period," was drawn by Charles Martin and etched by Leopold Martin. The Martin brothers were the sons of the renowned romantic artist and mezzotint engraver, John Martin (1789-1854). This particular costume design was inspired by the famous Bayeux Tapestry, which depicts the events leading up to the Norman Conquest of England in 1066. The tapestry, created between 1070 and 1080, is a significant historical artifact that provides valuable insights into the clothing and customs of the time. Charles and Leopold Martin meticulously studied various sources to create accurate and detailed representations of historical costumes for their series. In addition to the Bayeux Tapestry, they referenced monumental effigies, illuminated manuscripts, and portraits to ensure authenticity. Their work was published in London by Henry Bohn in 1842, showcasing the brothers' exceptional artistic abilities and their dedication to preserving the rich history of English costume. The engraving features William the Conqueror, dressed in the traditional Norman attire of a surcoat, tunic, and hose, adorned with intricate patterns and decorative elements. The detailed rendering of the costume, combined with the vibrant handcoloring, transports the viewer back to the time of the Norman Conquest and offers a fascinating glimpse into the fashion and style of the era.
