EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures a moment in history when blonde hair was considered the height of fashion. A woman of Venice is depicted dying her hair using a solanah, a wide brim hat with a hole in the center, as she gazes into a mirror. The intricate details and vibrant colors of this hand-colored copperplate engraving bring to life the elegance and sophistication of this bygone era.
The woman's reflection in the mirror adds an intriguing element to the composition, inviting viewers to imagine themselves witnessing this intimate beauty ritual firsthand. Her focused expression and delicate gestures convey a sense of care and precision as she transforms her appearance.
This illustration is based on Cesare Vecellio's "Habiti Antichi e moderni" from 1590, offering us a glimpse into the sartorial customs of Renaissance Venice. The meticulous attention to detail in both clothing and accessories showcases the craftsmanship and artistry that were valued during this period.
As we admire this historical depiction, we are reminded of how beauty standards have evolved over time yet remain deeply intertwined with culture and tradition. This print serves as a timeless reminder of the enduring allure of self-expression through personal style.
