Meeting on the Stairs – PRB painting

Greetings! I recently joined the list and only get to check my lists infrequently.

Extra tidbit: As a group of us are sitting in the livingroom <grin> looking at The Accolade and reading your comments, one commented that of all the pre-raphaelite paintings he has seen, The Meeting on the Stairs has the most accurate portrayal of 12th C Norman garb. Now, her gown is more than a cote than a bliaut, but most of it is documentable/explainable.

Can someone refer me to an earlier thread or speak to this question? ~ Kelda ferch Ystwyth
