EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph depicts a portrait in oils of a Countess of Erbach (left) and a noblewoman of Wurzburg from the late 17th century. The image is taken from Hefner-Alteneck's seminal work, "Costumes, Artworks and Appliances from the Middle Ages to the 17th Century," published in Frankfurt in 1889. Dr. Jakob Heinrich von Hefner-Alteneck (1811-1903), a renowned German curator, archaeologist, art historian, illustrator, and etcher, was the mastermind behind this comprehensive visual record of historical fashion and art. The Countess of Erbach is depicted in an elegant oil portrait, her regal countenance exuding an air of refinement and sophistication. Her attire is that of a noblewoman of the time, adorned with intricate lace collars, voluminous skirts, and a mantle draped over her shoulders. The rich colors and textures of her clothing are beautifully rendered, showcasing the exquisite detail and craftsmanship of the period. The noblewoman of Wurzburg, on the right, is equally stunning in her own right. Her elaborate headdress, adorned with feathers and pearls, draws the eye, while her sumptuous gown, with its intricate patterns and luxurious fabrics, speaks to the opulence of the era. The delicate lace sleeves and cuffs add a feminine touch to her regal attire. The chromolithograph, produced by the skillful hands of lithographer Joh. Klipphan and published by Heinrich Keller, offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of 17th-century European nobility. The meticulous attention to detail in both the portraits and their accompanying costumes makes this an invaluable resource for those studying the history of fashion and art during this period.
