Ivanhoe by Sir Walter Scott, Fiction, Classics

The book vividly describes the opulent attire and imposing presence of two central characters: the Prior Aymer, adorned in costly fabrics and precious gems, and a Knight Templar, whose rich garments and commanding demeanor reflect his authority. The Prior's ecclesiastical regalia contrasts with the Templar's elegant yet simpler attire, highlighting their respective statuses. The detailed descriptions of their clothing and physical appearances not only establish their social ranks but also hint at their personalities, particularly the Templar's haughty confidence.
