Norman ladies and girl of the 12th century


Norman ladies and girl of the 12th century "The girls of the 12th century wore their hair without veils, separated at front and plaited artfully (136)." "Toward the end of the 12th century, the shape of the veil changed entirely. It became much smaller, and was tied under the chin (137, 138). However, during this era, women were often shown without veils." 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).
