EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases figure number 20 from "Il Lavater portatile: o Sia compendio dell arte di riconoscere gli Uomini dai Tratti del Volto" (or "Pocket washing: Abrege de l'art de recognizing men through the features of the face"), volume 2. The work was created by Johann Kaspar Lavater, a renowned Swiss writer, thinker, and theologian of German expression in the late 18th century. The image represents the face of a woman with remarkable detail and precision. Lavater's expertise in physiognomy is evident as he captures every nuance and characteristic that defines her unique identity. From her delicate features to her expressive eyes, this portrait serves as a testament to Lavater's ability to recognize individuals through their facial traits. Published in Milan in 1811, this particular edition holds historical significance as it offers insights into Lavater's groundbreaking theories on human nature and character analysis based on physical appearance. It provides readers with an intimate glimpse into his revolutionary ideas that influenced various fields such as psychology and criminology. Preserved within a private collection, this print allows us to appreciate not only the artistic mastery behind Lavater's work but also its cultural importance. Through Giancarlo Costa's lens, we are transported back in time to witness one of history's most influential figures exploring the intricacies of human faces.
