Description

The Renaissance marked Europe's transition from medieval to modern times. Art, literature, and science flowered in the 15th and 16th centuries, while a vigorous trade with the Far East via newly developed sea routes enabled Italian merchants to supply a recently evolved middle class with materials adornments for elaborately designed apparel. Descriptive captions accompany each handsome, ready-to-color illustration, making this a collection that will appeal to colorists as much as it will delight costume historians and designers. Illustrations include: an Italian peasant couple on their wedding day; an Italian knight in steel armor; German royal family attired in velvet and accompanied by a soberly dressed nanny; and many more outfits designed for various activities and occasions. A Dover Publication. 45 black and white illustrations.
