Dr Martens, arguably the UK’s most enduringly popular shoes, are a favourite of art students (and lecturers) the world over—and you can now buy the art-historical version, decorated with a classic 15th-century war scene, The Triumph of Camillus, by the Italian Renaissance painter Biagio d'Antonio. The company’s classic eight-eye boots, embossed with details such as knights brandishing weaponry, cost £125 (art students may need to save up). The delectable DMs are part of the brand’s “Reinvented range, which plays with history to create something new”, the marketing blurb says.
