EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the era of King Charles I, offering a glimpse into the everyday clothing worn by ordinary English people during that period. The image is sourced from "The National and Domestic History of England" by William Hickman Smith Aubrey, published in London around 1890. In this vividly colored lithograph, we see both men and women dressed in their traditional attire. The men don doublets and hose, reflecting the fashionable style of the seventeenth century. Their hats add an air of sophistication to their outfits while puritan collars lend a touch of modesty. Meanwhile, the women's costumes exude elegance with their flowing gowns and intricate details. Each garment showcases the fashion trends prevalent during King Charles I's reign. What makes this photograph particularly intriguing is its historical context - it captures a time when England was embroiled in the turmoil of the English Civil War. These clothes were not only representative of personal style but also served as symbols within society at that time. As we observe this snapshot from history, we are transported to an era where fashion played a significant role in expressing one's identity and social standing. It serves as a reminder that even amidst political upheaval, individuals found ways to express themselves through their choice of clothing - a testament to human resilience and creativity throughout history.
