EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative chromolithograph depicts a German bourgeois and his wife in prayer during the 15th century. The man, dressed in the fashion of the time, wears a doublet with open sleeves, revealing intricately designed under-garments. He also carries a dagger as a symbol of his status and protection. His wife, dressed in a flowing gown with a fitted bodice and a headdress adorned with pearls and feathers, holds a prayer book. The couple's pious demeanor is emphasized by the illuminated prayer book, which adds a sense of reverence to the scene. The image is based on an oil painting in the collection of Ober-Tribunal-Procurators Abel in Stuttgart. The painting was created during the late Gothic period, a time when the arts flourished in Germany, particularly in the courts of the dukes of Saxony. The lineage of these dukes was known for their patronage of the arts and their influence on fashion. The illustration was produced by Dr. Jakob Heinrich von Hefner-Alteneck, a renowned German museum curator, archaeologist, art historian, illustrator, and etcher. Hefner-Alteneck was known for his meticulous attention to detail and his expertise in medieval art and costumes. This chromolithograph is a testament to his dedication to preserving the art and culture of the past. The image is a valuable historical record of the fashion and lifestyle of the German bourgeoisie during the 15th century. It is also a reminder of the importance of faith and piety in the daily lives of people during this era. The image is part of the extensive collection of the Dresden State Archive, which holds a wealth of information about German history and culture.
