EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 16th century print by Niclauss Kippell depicts a Bishop in full ecclesiastical dress, accompanied by the Pope as they make their way through a crowd. The Bishop, dressed in a richly colored robe and hat, rides on horseback with a bridled horse adorned in a caparison. The horsemen and their horses are also dressed in fine clothing, with the animals bedecked in ornate bridles and blankets. The scene is inscribed in Italian, translating to 'A Bishop in his ordinary Habitat accompanying the Pope...'. This leaf is taken from a larger manuscript of Italian Costumes, which provides a fascinating glimpse into the fashion and heritage of the Renaissance period. The intricate details of the Bishop's robes, the Pope's regal attire, and the ornate horse trappings all speak to the opulence and grandeur of the time. The use of tempera and ink on paper adds to the richness and depth of the image, making it a valuable addition to any collection of European art or religious history. This print, with its vibrant colors and intricate details, is a testament to the artistic skill of Niclauss Kippell and the cultural heritage of Italy during the Renaissance period.
