    Wolf came to play! Love Mary’s wedding dress and I love Margaret’s line, “if he is only the proxy, we’re looking forward to the real Maximilian”

      to be fair, she is not nearly as opulent in apearance as she would have been, Ghent revolted after the death of charles because they were rich and were displeased with the autoritarian regime charles had implemented and maria of burgundy was arrested because she lied about her intentions, which was brought to light by the king of France when he showed the delegates of the estates general the letter mary had sent him, which stated exactly the opposite of what she had promissed the estates general, (in the letter she had said that The estates would basically not be allowed to intervene on any important matters whilst the estates general she promissed more authority in return for the funds and men to defend against the french, this was brought to light in front of the council which the recordtaker noted was scandalous (shaming a young lady, especially a duchess, like that was not proper)
      she did deserve scrutiny but she really had little choice, though neither did the estates general, which ofcourse were not keen on a centralised authority stomping on their privileges (which they had won through generations of deals and treaties)
      also i don't think the use of violence in a church like this would have been taken lightly by the church

    This scene is fantastic. Only moments before he swears a sacred oath, before God, on behalf of Maximilian of Austria, to defend the Duchess against her enemies, in a cathedral, before a Cardinal. He swears before God that his sword will testify to his oath. Then her enemies come and demand his sword. This scene is the height of chivalry, honour, bravery and romance.

    Mary ´s wedding dress is beautiful: Her headdress and veil are beautiful too.The last part of the clip shows that Mary can have some hope that the whole situation will finally solve itself and to her adavantage.

    btw: not only was Mary ~13 years the senior to Charles VIII. (the dauphin in the vid), she was also 2 years older than Maximilian.
    and it was not Wolfgang von Polheim who stood proxy, the delegation was also larger.
    something the tv series could not adress: Mary was unable to speak german and Maximilian at first not fluent in french. they corresponded in latin.

      I read they were indeed married by proxy while Maximilian was still in Cologne. Although it wasn't just Polheim, but a larger delegation. The French king allegedly tried to give him a perilous journey to Ghent but he arrived safely anyway. The marriage ceremony was reenacted and there were celebrations.

      I presume it's the style of the time. From a practical point of view, the haircut provides extra padding under a helmet around the skull, while shaving below the ears minimizes chafing and overheating around the collar.
