EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures Alan Middleton, a rent collector in the 15th century. Dressed in traditional medieval attire, Middleton dons bag sleeves and carries a penner and ink-horn hanging from his girdle. This illustration is taken from the book "British Costume during 19 Centuries" by Mrs Charles H Ashdown, published in London in 1910. Middleton's clothing reflects the fashion of the time, showcasing English style with its intricate details. The image adds to its timeless appeal, transporting us back to an era long gone. As a rent collector for a monastery, Middleton played an important role in society. His job involved collecting payments from tenants on behalf of religious institutions. This profession required him to travel throughout the country, interacting with people from various backgrounds. The print offers us a glimpse into the Middle Ages when such occupations were prevalent. It serves as a reminder of our rich history and how individuals like Alan Middleton contributed to their communities. This particular image was preserved by Emily Jessie Ashdown under her husband's name - Mrs Charles H Ashdown - who compiled this comprehensive collection of British costumes. The photograph itself was captured by an unknown creator but has been carefully curated by The Print Collector for preservation purposes.
