EDITORS COMMENTS
In this late 15th century image, a German woman and her children are depicted in an elegant Dutch-style costume, as captured in a chromolithograph from Hefner-Alteneck's "Costumes, Artworks and Appliances from the Middle Ages to the 17th Century." The woman's attire showcases the opulence and intricacy of noblewomen's fashion during this period. Her long, mi-parti dress, with its gold embroidery and intricate patterns, is complemented by a short, fur-lined cape. Her long, cleanshaven hair is styled in elaborate braids, adorned with pearls and other precious jewels. The woman's jewelry is enlarged below the image, revealing a stunning collection of gold and pearl necklaces, bracelets, and earrings. Her children, dressed in simpler versions of the same style, accompany her, one holding a book wrapped in a cloth cover. The man in the background, possibly a nobleman, wears a gold doublet and a sword at his side, adding to the air of affluence and refinement. This image is a testament to the intricate and ornate fashion of the late 15th century, as well as the meticulous attention to detail in the works of Dr. Jakob Heinrich von Hefner-Alteneck. As a German museum curator, archaeologist, art historian, illustrator, and etcher, Hefner-Alteneck dedicated his life to documenting and preserving the art and culture of the Middle Ages and the early modern period. This chromolithograph, produced in 1889, remains an invaluable resource for scholars and enthusiasts of European history and fashion.
