EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite portrayal of an Italian nobleman with his majestic falcon, dating back to the 15th century. The image is derived from a playing card engraved on copper around 1460 and can be found in 'Manners, Customs, & Dress during the Middle Ages and during the Renaissance Period' by Paul Lacroix. Preserved in the Cabinet des Estampes at the National Library of Paris, this historical artifact offers a glimpse into Italy's rich cultural heritage. The nobleman stands proudly in his elaborate costume, reflecting the opulence and grandeur associated with European nobility during this era. His regal presence is enhanced by the company of his loyal hunting companion - a magnificent falcon perched gracefully on his gloved hand. This depiction not only highlights aristocratic pastimes but also symbolizes power and control over nature. The intricate details captured in this engraving showcase remarkable craftsmanship prevalent during the late 15th century. Every stroke brings life to both man and bird, creating an atmosphere that transports us back to a time when such scenes were commonplace. Through this print from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are reminded of Italy's significant contributions to art history as well as its deep-rooted connection with falconry – an ancient sport cherished by nobles across Europe. It serves as a testament to how visual representations can transcend time and continue to captivate audiences centuries later.
