Royalist Bluecoat soldier 1643
Royalist Bluecoat soldier 1643.
Another from my collection of English Civil War figures , this one shows the Royalist uniform we know most about , and posting it provides a good excuse to discuss some of the interesting things that need to be considered when making a historical reconstruction .
I’ve loved this period for a long time, to the point of obsession , have lots of books , and keep up with the researches done by re-enactors into original documents .
We have little hard information about the clothing produced in the ECW for common soldiers, and of course not a single surviving item . What survives are contracts for supplying clothing , and some very stylised and crude woodcuts, so you need to know a bit about 17c clothing before starting .
Painting scarcely existed in England apart from foreign artists working for the Court , who painted the wealthy people rather than common labourers .
There are , alas , no British parallels to the innumerable Netherlandish and French paintings showing peasants , but we have to presume British ones looked pretty similar .
