Back to Violante's Costuming
Various
Spanish Textiles. Warning: the full sized images are VERY large. Pictures are from Gómez-Moreno, Manuel. El panteón real de las Huelgas de
Burgos. Madrid, Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas,
Instituto Diego Velázquez, 1946. Item. A Netted Textile from the
Tomb of Isabel de Molina. Item. A Naalbinded glove from the Tomb of
Maria of Aragon.
From a different source: Two views of fingerloop braiding
from the burial garments of Archbishop Rodrigo Ximenez de Rada. (And my
heartfelt thanks to the monks of Santa Maria de Huerta who allowed me to
see these items up close and in person!)
