EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a collection of male headgear from the 15th century. The image, taken in 1910 by Emily Jessie Ashdown, features various styles of ornate bycockets and peaked caps worn during that era. Among them, a striking gold crown encircles the head of a king on the right side of the photograph, its summit adorned with an exquisite boss made of gold. The illustration is part of the renowned book "British Costume during 19 Centuries" authored by Mrs Charles H Ashdown in London. It offers us a glimpse into medieval England's fashion and culture, particularly highlighting men's attire and headdress during this period. The photo evokes images of knights clad in suits of armor, tents pitched for warfare or royal events, as well as regal figures donning these magnificent headpieces. It transports us back to a time when royalty reigned supreme and every detail mattered in conveying power and status. Emily Jessie Ashdown's artistic eye captures not only historical accuracy but also presents these artifacts as timeless works of art. Through her lens, we can appreciate the intricacy and craftsmanship put into creating such elaborate headgear that symbolized authority and prestige. This remarkable print serves as a visual testament to our rich heritage while reminding us how fashion has always played an essential role in shaping society throughout history.
