EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is a handcolored copperplate engraving of a woman from Siena, Italy, dating back to the 16th century. The print is taken from Robert von Spalart's Historical Picture of the Costumes of the Principal People of Antiquity and of the Middle Ages, published in 1796. The meticulously detailed engraving showcases the woman's elegant attire, typical of the fashionable dress of the Sienese aristocracy during the Renaissance period. Her voluminous gown, adorned with intricate patterns and rich fabrics, is accessorized with a fur-lined mantle, a lace veil, and a pearl necklace. Her expressive face, with its gentle features and soulful eyes, exudes an air of refinement and grace. The woman's posture and the delicate folds of her garments suggest a sense of elegance and poise, reflecting the artistic and cultural achievements of the Sienese society during the late Renaissance. This image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of beauty, art, and opulence.
