Today, in honor of Crafty Goodness yesterday, the image I’ve chosen is of a merchant. This is taken from the early 14th c. medieval manuscript known as the Codex Manesse (c. 1305-1340), and shows a medieval merchant selling (or trying to sell) a belt or pouch to a lady.

Medieval merchant selling his wears to a lady, from the Codex Manesse c. 1305-1340.

As always, click on the image to download it full sized.

Peace,

Bekka
