EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite illumination from Kippell's costume book, dating back to the late 16th century. Measuring at a delicate size of 14.5x9 cm, this artwork is currently housed in the prestigious Walters Art Museum in Baltimore, USA. The image transports us to the enchanting world of Renaissance Italy, specifically Venice during its vibrant carnival season. The artist, Niclauss Kippell, created this masterpiece after his inspiring journey through Italy. It captures the essence of a masquerade ball with its intricate details and vivid colors. Intriguingly masked figures donning elaborate costumes grace the scene. Venetian courtesans adorned with fleurs de lys motifs add an air of mystery and allure to the composition. The design incorporates elements such as pantaloons and masks that were characteristic of Italian theatrical performances during that era. This mesmerizing artwork offers a glimpse into the opulent festivities and cultural traditions prevalent in Renaissance Venice. It serves as a testament to both Kippell's artistic prowess and his ability to capture the spirit of this unique period in history.
