Under the dress, the stories

An essay by Anna Falcioni: the luxury of a human prince for political image, and the stirrings of rebellion among the people

And under her dress, there are stories of society. Everywhere and always. Anna Falconer (Professor of Medieval History at Urbino), explains it with careful attention to talking about the fashion of the court at the time of Pandolfo III Malatesta (1370-1427), Lord of Fano.

not always allowed great expense budgets. And then we went to the loan, as in 1427, when Pandolfo turns to Venice. And even these have their own smell political money. Pandolfo increased from Visconti to Venice: in exchange for good 'conduct', or military engagements, which are useful to cover "the costs of wasteful patronage" Malatesta.
