Dresses and decorations of the Middle Ages
Dresses and Decorations of the Middle Ages is a 1843 London costume and ornament study published by William Pickering, drawn from medieval manuscripts, monuments and textiles for artists and antiquaries. Its pictures are hand-coloured plates of crosiers, illuminated initials, a kneeling figure in a gold patterned cloak and a red and gold cross-shaped monogram, giving designers ready medieval motifs for borders, capitals and textile patterns.
