Phrase of the week, that is.
Anyways.
I'm thinking of added a "persona-in-a-box" to my A&S 50 list. If I understand correctly, the persona box contains plenty of info on a region and time period to get someone set with a basic persona. Kinda like ready-to-wear versus couture. hahaha.
I'm feeling miffed and cranky over the "if a saint wears it in the painting, the costume is allegorical and therefore not historically accurate (read: wearable)".
Most paintings are religious in nature so costume reference is really thin otherwise. I could say that the portraits of royalty would be right out also as that is not reflective of the norm. *sighs* I could just ignore what 'they' say, but it's difficult.
