Norman preacher, monk and pilgrim.
Norman preacher, monk and pilgrim. "Figure 105 is remarkable because the clothes only slightly resemble those of the clergy. It is included here because it represents a preacher in an original manuscript. The author speaks with great distaste for these men, hypocrites who preached only for money. For this reason, he is shown with a full purse." "The costume of the pilgrim (107) is worthy of particular attention, for he is the first in this type seen by Strutt." Handcolored copperplate engraving from Robert von Spalart's "Historical Picture of the Costumes of the Principal People of Antiquity and of the Middle Ages" (1796).
