#1400s

[edwardian-girl-next-door]

I've had this post in my drafts for over a month so imagine my shock when my mum got me a reproduction set of these for Christmas!

If you're interested, they're from Creative Anachronism on etsy. The number cards don't have numerals on them, so they might take a little getting used to (my mum and I are not the best at math lol). The seller provides this information about them:

"Comprised of 52 cards, [the Cloisters Set] is the only known deck of illuminated ordinary playing cards (as opposed to Tarot Cards) from the 15th century. There are four suits, each consisting of a King, Queen, Knave, and 10 pip cards. The suit symbols, based on equipment associated with the hunt, are Horns, Collars, Tethers, and Nooses. The value of the pip cards is indicated by the symbol's repetition.

The figures, which appear to be based on Franco-Flemish models, were drawn in a bold, if somewhat unrefined hand -- suggesting a lampoon of extravagant Burgundian court fashion."

ab. 1475-1480 The Cloisters Playing Cards by South Netherlandish master

King of Horns / Queen of Horns / Knave of Horns

King of Nooses / Queen of Nooses / Knave of Nooses

1400s WOMEN - PART 1

Following on from the simple modesty of the 1300s, female hair in the 1400s became a lot more elaborate thanks to the addition of hair pieces, ribbon and other decorations. Braided styles evolved into very detailed and decorative concoctions. Styles also became more flowy and romantic, often with curls framing the face. CC links under the cut.

My favourite tomb in the Cathedral of Barcelona (Catalonia). This is Antoni Tallander —known at the time as Mossèn Borra, Lord Borra—, who was master of jesters.

His is the only tombstone in the Cathedral that's not made of stone. It's made of bronze, and has the Latin inscription "Hic jacet Dominus Borra miles gloriosus. Facta fuit sepultura ista anno domini MCCCCXXXIII", which means "Here lies Lord Borra, glorious soldier. This tombstone was made in the year of Our Lord 1433." He was not a soldier, even less a glorious one; the term "glorious soldier" is a joke and a reference to the comedy play of the same name by the Roman playwriter Plautus.

He served as jester in the courts of two kings of Catalonia-Aragon: Martin the Humane's (Martí l'Humà) in Sicily and Alphonse the Magnanimous' (Alfons el Magnànim) in Naples. King Martin held him in such high esteem that he entrusted him with diplomatic missions, which led him to take part in the Council of Constance and follow the Holy Roman Emperor Segismund, reporting back to the king via letters. According to the legend, the last thing king Martin did before dying was laughing at a joke Borra made.
