EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph, titled "Costumes of Priests, Women and Children from the 12th Century," is an exquisite illustration derived from a painting housed in Saint Peter's Basilica, Rome. The image, created by the renowned German museum curator, archaeologist, art historian, illustrator, and etcher, Dr. Jakob Heinrich von Hefner-Alteneck, provides a fascinating glimpse into the fashion and attire of the clergy, women, and children during the Holy Roman Empire in the 12th century. The central figure of this intricately detailed composition is Emperor Henry II, dressed in the regal attire of the time, complete with a long, flowing tunic, a mantle adorned with ermine fur, and a crown adorned with precious stones. The Empress Cunigunde of Luxembourg is depicted in an elegant gown, featuring a fitted bodice and a voluminous skirt, accessorized with a veil and a diadem. Surrounding the imperial couple are various priests, bishops, and courtiers, all dressed in their distinctive robes and ecclesiastical garments. The women, clad in long, flowing gowns, are adorned with intricate headdresses and jewelry, while the children, dressed in simple tunics and robes, are shown playing and interacting with their elders. This illustration, lithographed by C.R. Dr. Hefner-Alteneck, is an invaluable resource for scholars and enthusiasts of medieval art, fashion, and history. Originally published in Hefner-Alteneck's seminal work, "Costumes, Artworks, and Appliances from the Middle Ages to the 17th Century," this image is now preserved in the extensive collections of the Hamburg City Library. A true masterpiece of historical documentation, this chromolithograph offers a captivating window into the rich and intricate world of medieval Europe.
