EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from 1670 showcases the elegance and opulence of Italian fashion during the 17th century. The print features an extravagant Italian gentleman accompanied by a stylish young man, both adorned in exquisite costumes that reflect their social status and taste for luxury. The gentlemen are depicted wearing elaborate hats with feathers, symbolizing their wealth and sophistication. Their fashionable attire includes bows, which were popular accessories at the time, adding a touch of refinement to their overall appearance. The walking sticks they carry not only serve as practical tools but also contribute to their dandy-like demeanor. This historical illustration captures the essence of Italian style and serves as a testament to the country's rich sartorial heritage. It is evident that clothing played a significant role in defining one's social standing during this period. The artwork is based on an original drawing by Mitelli and was later engraved by Delatre for Raphael Jacquemin's publication on costume history. This particular print can be found in a private collection today. Through this image, we are transported back in time to witness the fashion trends embraced by wealthy Italians centuries ago. It reminds us of how clothing has always been used as a means of self-expression and reflects society's values and aspirations throughout history.
