Magdalene

  

 

Below the dress is a white undergarment based on Lengberg finds. The extant piece is a part of the "bodice". No such period depiction is known to the authors, but it is possible to document undergarments - bodice with skirt (e.g. 1st half of 16th century). The illumination fol. 133v in codex 2774 (Vienna, Österreichische Nationalbibliothek, 1448) shows "Lengberg"´s bodice type with attached skirt.
