 Salvete Omnes,

Enjoy - 

ps for some more Old Polish costume by maestro Stefano - this time a nobleman with a special hat adornment popular in Old Poland through out the period. 
Nota bene Old Polish hunting books from the XVI-XVIII centuries advised the noble hunters to hunt for male herons to collect these special crest, tufted feathers.
