Another example of 16th century separate sleeveless bodice and skirt

Going through som of the newer the images on Livinghistory.dk yesterday I found another example of a lower class woman's costume with a sleeveless bodice (livstycke in Swedish) worn with a separate skirt. It's from interior decoration paintings showing the different seasons and dated to c. 1585


You find the rest of the images, which include a lovely winter scene and the Goddess Diana presiding over Spring, here.

Since I am especially interested in Scandianvian and Swedish manners of dress this one made me happy.
