Black First Worn for Mourning, 149e

Anne, queen of Charles VIII OF
France, was the originator OF blacK
as token of mourning, wearing 1t
lpon the death of her husband in l498.
Contrary to that the accepted mourn
ng of Europe was white. Black, how
ever. gained great popularity, and was
quickly adopted; so marked was any
deviation from the unwritten law that
Mary Queen of Scots was termed the
White Queen because she held by the
,ncient custom when mourning for
Lord Harnley.
