A delightful reminder of how many different professions existed already in the sixteenth century, though I can think of a few not included here. The illustrations show how people at different levels of society in different professions dressed and cultivated their beards, and what kinds of tools were made and used.

First published in 1578: Includes earlier works as well. 300+ pages: Many beautiful illustrations, many from the later half of the 16th C. In addition to regular folk, there are many Turks, Church leaders, Gods & Goddess, etc. Keep an eye out for allegory! *chuckle*
