EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Costumes of the ancient world" in a beautifully colored engraving. Created by the German School in the 19th century, this artwork is part of a private collection and was originally featured in Braun & Schneider's publication, "Zur Geschichte der Kostume" (c. 1895). The image offers a fascinating glimpse into various historical periods and cultures. In this composition, we see an array of costumes representing different civilizations and eras. From women dressed in elegant Eastern Roman Empire attire to men adorned with military garments from Ancient Egypt and France, each figure tells its own story. Royalty is also depicted here, including pharaohs from ancient Egypt and Emperor Charlemagne from Frankish history. The presence of weapons such as bows and arrows highlights the importance of warfare during these times. Soldiers donning armor stand alongside archers ready for combat. This engraving provides insight into not only fashion but also armaments used by troops throughout history. With references to European nations like France and Byzantine culture, this artwork captures the diversity within ancient societies across Europe. It serves as a reminder of our rich heritage while showcasing how clothing played an essential role in defining social status. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece through their Fine Art Finder platform, allowing us to appreciate these intricate details that bring history to life once more.
