I need your help

[frualeydis]

Girls (and Teddy), I need your help. If you look closely at the portrait of an unknown lady by Anthonis Mor you see that she's not wearing a two piece headdress (what Drea Leed calls a "flemish hood", with a cap and a wired veil, like this woman does, but a three piece head dress. First it's the cap, then it's the white fabric hanging in the back, like the veil of a french hood and then on top of that there's a much sheerer veil that can be seen lying on top of the hanging veil.
(On this picture you see the cap with only the short veil.)

So what is the hanging white fabric and how is it fastened to the cap? Suggestions?

Aclisto,

Your images are great! Do you have any background info on them? Eg artists names, dates etc!

I've got a huge headache at the moment in attempting to transfer over 4,000 (yes thats Four THOUSAND plus) files from my PC(were all burned onto CD) to my Laptop. Except the CDs can't be read by the Laptop. So I'm trying to get the two machines to simply talk to each other so I can transfer that way!

Huge headache!

Hmm... Thats a good question. I have about 7,500 images and to be honest its kind of hard to keep track of them all. I started getting them about 5 years ago and kept little to nothing record wise and now I'm better at it. However if you're asking about a particular picture I could probably tell you. By the way, did you still want a CD of them? Or CD's at this point :) Let me know rap3693@mwsc(dot)edu
