EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the costume of a podestat, a chief magistrate of a city state or representative of the Holy Roman Empire in the 15th century. The figure depicted wears an exquisite brocade simar, also known as a cassock, which adds an air of regality to his appearance. Adorned with a bonnet and gloves, he exudes authority and power. A striking gold chain hangs from his neck, symbolizing his prestigious position. In his hand, he holds a baton, further emphasizing his role as a leader. Standing beside him is a page dressed in equally impressive attire. The page dons a scarlet hat that complements their doublet perfectly. Their stockings are mismatched but add an element of eccentricity to their ensemble. Most notably, they carry an imposing large sword at their side. The scene depicted in this print originates from Pinturicchio's fresco found in the church of Sant Maria d'Aracoeli in Rome. This handcoloured illustration was meticulously drawn and lithographed by Paul Mercuri with accompanying text by Camille Bonnard for "Historical Costumes from the 12th to 15th Centuries" published by Levy Fils in Paris during 1861. Through this remarkable artwork, we catch glimpses into the fashion and grandeur associated with high-ranking officials during this period in history - truly capturing the essence of medieval splendor.
