Answer: The right answer is the C) The man belonged to the nobility.

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that since the man was wearing a green outfit, cut close and that clung to his sides—so it was made specifically for him—and a matching mantle, lined with furs, it is possible to infer that he was a nobleman or an aristocrat. In the Middle Ages, when the romance <em>Sir Gawain and the Green Knight</em> was composed, the use of furs to line the garments as well as of the color green in clothing was associated with the gentry and with wealthy citizens, since they were both expensive materials.
