EDITORS COMMENTS
Eleanor of Portugal, Consort of Frederick III, Holy Roman Emperor: A Regal Portrait from the 15th Century This exquisite handcolored illustration, drawn and lithographed by Paul Mercuri with text by Camille Bonnard, presents Eleanor of Portugal (1434-1467), the beloved consort of Frederick III, Holy Roman Emperor. The portrait, taken from Historical Costumes from the 12th to 15th Centuries, published by Levy Fils in Paris in 1860, showcases Eleanor's regal elegance and refined fashion sense. Eleanor is depicted wearing a meshed headdress adorned with pearls and precious stones, a band of gold encircling her forehead. Her blouse, made of fine gold fabric, is intricately embroidered with delicate floral motifs and adorned with a high collar. The golden dress she wears, featuring a fitted bodice and voluminous skirt, is a testament to the opulence of the 15th century. The influence of Italian art is evident in this portrait, with the use of fresco techniques reminiscent of the works of Pinturicchio and Raphael. The rich colors and intricate details of the illustration transport us back to the grandeur of the 15th century, offering a glimpse into the fashion and beauty standards of the time. Eleanor of Portugal was a Portuguese princess who married Frederick III in 1452. She was known for her intelligence, grace, and piety, and played an important role in the imperial court. This portrait not only captures her physical beauty but also her regal presence, making it a valuable historical document and a testament to the artistic skill of Paul Mercuri and Camille Bonnard.
