EDITORS COMMENTS
This color engraving from 1870 showcases a woman hailing from Cervera, a town in the Kingdom of Naples during the 19th century. The intricate details and vibrant hues bring this historical figure to life, offering us a glimpse into the fashion and attire of that era. Her clothing reflects the style and trends prevalent during the modern age in Italy. The woman's dress is elegantly designed, with its flowing silhouette and delicate patterns. The garment exudes sophistication and refinement, hinting at her social status or perhaps an important occasion she might be attending. Every fold and crease has been meticulously engraved, capturing even the smallest nuances of her attire. Though we admire her fashionable ensemble, it is unfortunate that we do not know much about this mysterious woman herself. She remains unknown to us but continues to captivate our imagination through this remarkable print. Preserved in a private collection by Santiago Ortega, this vertical engraving serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a valuable historical artifact. Its presence transports us back in time to witness firsthand how people dressed in Cervera during the late 19th century. This print offers us not only aesthetic pleasure but also insight into history – reminding us of how fashion can serve as a window into past cultures and societies.
