Applied? Really? I hadn't ever thought of that as an option--figured it was
either woven in, or fabric sewn in strips, like the later one of Lucretia?
(green/gold with stripes of varying widths), which is definitely religious.
I wonder if it was a regional style or something....
--Sue, who thinks maybe her memory is out partying somewhere with Bella's,
'cuz it's certainly not here at home where she can use it!

> You see what I mean about my memory Sue?! Yes, Beatrice d'Este is a very
good example (I think most opinions I've heard say that the stripes are
applied in that example, to relate this back to the original question). I
have not studied the Manesse Codex and can't speak to that. And yes, she is
another Italian example. I'm sure there are more out there, but as I said,
anything not 16thc Venetian or Italian is not my forte. :-)
