Clothing the Past: Surviving Garments from Early Medieval to Early Modern Western Europe

Clothing the Past: Surviving Garments from Early Medieval to Early Modern Western Europe By Coatsworth Elizabeth
2018 | 470 Pages | ISBN: 9004288708 | PDF | 34 MB


One hundred surviving garments are discussed with colour plates. Ranging from high art to homely, some are associated with known persons, others are anonymous, yet their histories – of recycling, repairing, augmenting – illuminate times when textile was handmade and precious.
