EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite print captures the elegance and grandeur of an Italian senator and noblewoman from Venice during the 1560s. The senator, dressed in the traditional attire of the upper class, dons a dark, brocade doublet and hose, accessorized with a ruff collar and a pink, ermine-trimmed cloak. His hat, adorned with a black feather, completes his aristocratic ensemble. The noblewoman, equally stunning, is depicted wearing a pale green, silk gown with intricate gold trimming and a high-necked, long-sleeved bodice. Her voluminous, layered skirt is accentuated by a pink, fur-lined cloak, which is fastened with a brooch. Her elaborate headdress, featuring a tall, feathered hat and a fan made of ostrich feathers, adds a touch of sophistication to her appearance. Their refined attire and the rich textures of their clothing, from the velvets and brocades to the furs and silks, speak to their wealth and status in Venetian society during the 16th century. The print, with its intricate details and vibrant colors, offers a glimpse into the opulent world of the Italian aristocracy and the fashion trends of the time.
