EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored copperplate engraving, created in 1577 and published in Robert von Spalarts "Historical Picture of the Costumes of the Principal People of Antiquity and of the Middle Ages" in 1796, showcases a noblewoman of Burgundy. The image captures the elegance and refinement of the Burgundian court during the late Middle Ages. The noblewoman is depicted wearing a richly decorated gown, adorned with intricate gold and silver embroidery, and a luxurious fur-lined mantle. Her headdress, consisting of a tall, conical cap and a veil, adds to her regal appearance. The meticulous attention to detail in the engraving, from the delicate folds of her gown to the intricate patterns on her headdress, highlights the artistic skill of the engraver. The use of handcoloring adds an additional layer of depth and vibrancy to the image, bringing the noblewoman to life. This print offers a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of the Burgundian court during the late Middle Ages, making it a valuable historical and artistic record.
