EDITORS COMMENTS

This engraving from the 16th century showcases the exquisite costume of an African woman hailing from the Kingdom of Tlemcen, within the Ottoman Empire in Algeria. The detailed artwork by Christoph Krieger depicts a woman adorned in a cape over a robe with voluminous sleeves, fastened together with an opulent buckle made of gold or silver. Her regal appearance is further enhanced by her elegant gold earrings. The engraving is framed beautifully and engraved by H. Catenacci and Fellmann, adding to its artistic allure. Gerard Seguin and E. F. Huyot skillfully transformed Krieger's woodcut into this remarkable woodblock print that we see today. This piece originates from Cesare Vecellio's renowned publication "Costumes anciens et modernes, Habiti antichi et moderni di tutto il mondo" which was published between 1859-1860 in Paris by Firman Didot Ferris Fils. It offers us a glimpse into the fashion trends prevalent during the 16th century in North Africa. The image not only provides insight into historical attire but also highlights the rich cultural heritage of Arab civilization present in regions like Tlemcen and throughout North Africa. This enchanting portrayal serves as a testament to the intricate craftsmanship and sartorial elegance that existed during this period. Florilegius has preserved this extraordinary piece for future generations to appreciate its beauty and significance within art history.
