EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of Barbarian art from Lombardy: the comb of Queen Theodelinde, dating back to 1308. Created by an Italian School in the 7th century, this exquisite treasure is housed in the Treasury of Monza Cathedral in Italy. The comb was discovered as part of Queen Theodelinde's trousseau within her tomb, shedding light on her life and beauty rituals during the Middle Ages. Teodolinda, also known as Lombard queen, passed away in 627 and left behind this stunning artifact that has stood the test of time. Displayed at Monza's Museo e Tesoro del Duomo (Museum and Treasure of Monza Cathedral), this comb exemplifies both artistic skill and historical significance. Its intricate design reflects the barbaric style prevalent during that era while serving as a practical beauty accessory for hairstyling purposes. Photographer Luisa Ricciarini beautifully captures every detail with precision and clarity. This image allows us to appreciate not only its aesthetic appeal but also offers a glimpse into daily life during medieval times - showcasing coquetry, personal grooming habits, and fashion trends. With its rich history and cultural importance, this photograph reminds us of our connection to past civilizations through their artistry. It serves as a testament to human creativity across centuries while preserving an important piece of Italian heritage for generations to come.
