From the era of the Roman Empire through the rise of the Renaissance, this coloring book presents fifteen centuries of Spanish fashion. Its meticulous, accurate renderings focus particularly on the Arabic influences introduced by the Moors and depict Spain's dramatic variations in fashion: the Roman-styled clothing worn by a farm couple of the third century, the quilted tunic of a thirteenth-century Saracen warrior, the armor of a sixteenth-century conquistador, and lavish royal costumes from several eras, including the styles famously depicted by the court painter Diego Velazquez. 44 black-and-white illustrations.
