EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Adimari Cassone" painted by Scheggia, Giovanni di Ser Giovanni in 1450. The artwork, displayed at the Galleria dell Accademia & Museo degli Strumenti Musicali in Florence, Italy, is a part of a panel that was likely inserted into wooden wainscoting known as "spalliere". These spalliere were used to line the walls of nuptial chambers rather than being placed on the front of wedding chests. The painting depicts the joyous marriage between Boccaccio Adimari and Lisa Ricasoli in 1420 or possibly Martelli-Adimari around 1440. It offers a glimpse into Italian society during the fifteenth century and highlights elements such as bridal fashion, elegance, and male fashion trends. The composition portrays a grand ceremony with a gilt canopy above the couple's heads. The groom stands tall wearing an elaborate headdress while his bride dons an exquisite gown. Surrounding them are members of Florentine society including statesmen and senators who gather to celebrate this momentous occasion. With its intricate details and vibrant colors, this Renaissance masterpiece captures both historical significance and artistic brilliance. Through this print from Fine Art Finder by Bridgeman Images, viewers can appreciate not only the beauty of Italian art but also gain insight into European culture during this era.
