EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable drawing by the renowned artist Hans Holbein the Younger. The artwork in question is a preliminary sketch for the portrait of Morette, which can be found in the prestigious Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister in Dresden, Germany. Holbein, known for his exceptional talent during the Renaissance and Renaissance-Baroque periods, created this masterpiece during the 16th century. His attention to detail and mastery of technique are evident in every stroke of this exquisite drawing. The subject of this portrait remains enigmatic as Morette's identity is not widely known. However, what captivates viewers is not only her mysterious allure but also her impeccable fashion sense. She wears an elegant beret that adds a touch of sophistication to her ensemble. Her headdress further enhances her appearance, hinting at various possible roles she might have held – civilian, military or religious. As we delve into this mesmerizing artwork captured through Alinari Fratelli's lens in 1939, we are transported back to a time when Europe was flourishing with artistic brilliance. This piece embodies both Renaissance and Baroque styles prevalent during that era. The significance of this photograph lies not only in its historical value but also its ability to evoke emotions within us centuries later. It serves as a testament to Holbein's genius and his contribution to art history. Let us cherish this glimpse into the past - an extraordinary collaboration between artist and photographer - reminding us once again why masterpieces like these continue to inspire awe and admiration across generations.
