Common Man Through the Centuries by Max Barsis

This book would be excellent for beginning art or fine art students/enthusiasts. It depicts the common man in penciled art renditions over the centuries. For instance, the following depictions are made: - English peasants in the 12th century - Building workers 1400-1450 - Sailors in mid-15th century Flanders - German peasants of late 15th century wearing a gorget - Pomerian peasants of the 16th century where a woman sports Burstling which is a short sleeveless bodice garment The acquisition would be worth the price for the student in your house.
