EDITORS COMMENTS
Great image of Wilhelm I, Margrave of Baden (1428-1473), a prominent figure in 15th-century Europe. This chromolithograph is a reproduction of the grave effigy located in Konstanz Minster, Germany. Wilhelm is depicted in full plate armor, complete with a cape and a heraldic coat of arms. The intricate details of his armor and the rich textures of the fabric are beautifully captured in this illustration. Wilhelm I was a Duke of Baden, a region in southwestern Germany. He was a significant player in the political landscape of the time, with close ties to the Duchy of Saxony. One of his most notable friendships was with Elector Frederick the Wise of Saxony, who was known for his extensive library and patronage of the arts. This illustration is from "Costumes, Artworks and Appliances from the Middle Ages to the 17th Century," a comprehensive work by Dr. Jakob Heinrich von Hefner-Alteneck. Hefner-Alteneck was a German museum curator, archaeologist, art historian, illustrator, and etcher. His meticulous research and attention to detail are evident in this stunning reproduction. The original artwork can be found in the State Archive of Dresden, along with other valuable documents and artifacts from the region's history. The Stammbücher, or family records, of the Margraves of Baden are also housed in the archive, providing a wealth of information about the dynasty and its members. This illustration offers a glimpse into the fashion and art of the mid-15th century, providing valuable insights into the aesthetics and culture of the time. It is a testament to Hefner-Alteneck's skill as an illustrator and his dedication to preserving and sharing the history of his region.
