Dresses and decorations of the Middle Ages
Dresses and decorations of the Middle Ages is a costume and ornament book by Henry Shaw, published in London by William Pickering in 1843 for readers interested in medieval dress and design. Its pictures are hand-coloured plates of medieval figures in costume, alongside a black-and-white initial letter and framed manuscript-style miniatures, offering a designer reference for period clothing, rich textiles and decorative lettering.
