Byzantine Dress : Representations of Secular Dress, Hardback Book

Byzantine Dress : Representations of Secular Dress Hardback

Part of the The New Middle Ages series

Hardback

Description

In Byzantium there were two overlapping systems of dress: a semiotic one whereby dress was a code for rank and wealth, and a fashion system where dress was based on the desire to look a certain way.

This book explains secular dress from the eighth to the twelfth centuries through an examination of painted representations.
