EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enchanting portrait of Poppee - Femme De Neron, a Roman Empress who lived during the first century AD. Painted by the Master of Berrys Cleres Femmes in 1403, this illustration is part of the renowned manuscript De Claris mulieribus, housed in the Bibliotheque nationale de France. In this image, Poppee Sabina exudes an air of mystery and elegance as she gazes into the distance. Adorned in a regal green dress veiled with gold leaf accents, her royal status is undeniable. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, capturing not only her beauty but also her noble presence. The choice of colors adds depth and richness to the composition while emphasizing Poppee's importance as an empress. Her gloved hands delicately hold a book symbolizing knowledge and wisdom. This portrayal highlights both her intelligence and influence during her time alongside Emperor Nero. The photograph itself was taken for Verve magazine in July-October 1939, showcasing its timeless appeal even after centuries have passed since its creation. As we admire this remarkable piece from Italy's artistic heritage, we are transported back to ancient Rome where power and intrigue reigned supreme. It serves as a reminder that history continues to captivate us through artistry and storytelling.
