What reading level is Furs And Fur Garments book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Muscovy plenipotentiary was a Duke (his name is not recorded) and when he appeared before Mary he wore a very thick robe, lined and furred with a " Russian fur, " possibly sable, and " had on his head a nightcap full of big pearls, the like of which had never been seen before for size. " He lodged in the City, and was attended by a train of London merchants, " free of Muscovia. " Thus attended, the ambas- sador and his suite were taken over Westminster Abbey, then newly restored, after its ...recent spoliation under Henry VIII. And Edward VI.
FUR GARMENTS 53 CHAPTER IX Elizabeth Charles I. Fur in art Decline of the trade Its revival The boas and the muffs of our grandmothers.
IT is a rather curious fact, but the wardrobe accounts of Elizabeth are not particularly rich in items concerning her furs. The fact was, the ex- ceeding heaviness of her farthingales and furbelows were such that fur could not be introduced with impunity into such an elaborate costume. That her nobles wore fur-lined cloaks is evident from the magnificence of those introduced into their numerous portraits.
