DescriptionScrupulously researched book by noted authority traces the development of European clothing styles from prehistory to the Norman Conquest in a.d. 1066. Over 160 illustrations, including 17 full-color plates, display draped robes of classical Greece, the jewel-encrusted apparel of a 10th-century Byzantine emperor, garments of peasants, as well as footwear, hairstyles, headdresses, and jewelry. Accompanying text chronologically traces origin and development of a garment and its relation to forerunners and successors. Immensely valuable reference for students, historians, artists and anyone intersted in costume history.Author: NorrisVAT: NoMinimum Order Quantity: 0
