Lady Gaga would have felt right at home in medieval Livonia!
Now I’m on a mission to learn more about these costumes. Why hasn’t the woman on the right covered her face? What does that tell us about her social standing vis–à–vis the other two ladies? Sadly, I have a feeling that learning more about medieval Livonian costumes will be something of a challenge…
