The Middle Ages (43) : Master tailor

In 2008, 2009 and 2011, I compiled a series about the Middle Ages as an attempt to illustrate how life was going on in that time.
Starting today, the story continues with 25 brand new pictures.

Dressmaking was a profession in which you could earn a lot of money in the Middle Ages and is thousands of years old.
This craft was already practiced at the time of the ancient Greeks and Romans, and in all likelihood even far before that.

My picture shows a master tailor and his son.
