This tumblr aspires to become a
helpful resource for history (and mainly fashion history) research and
focuses primarily on illuminations from medieval and renaissance
manuscripts.
Note: I am not a professional fashion
historian. If you spot any inconsistency or outright fallacy somewhere
in the picture descriptions please feel free (or even better, obliged)
to let me know!
