This stunning handcoloured steel engraving captures the elegance and grace of the Grand Duchess of Venice, as depicted by Abraham de Bruyn in 1581. The intricate details of her attire, from the luxurious fur coat to the exquisite pearl necklace and jewel-encrusted belt, showcase the opulence and sophistication of Venetian nobility during this time period.
The artist, Hippolyte Pauquet, skillfully brings to life the traditional costume and accessories worn by the Grand Duchess, highlighting the fine craftsmanship and attention to detail that was characteristic of European aristocracy in the 16th century. Her elaborate hat adorned with a precious stone adds a touch of glamour to her ensemble, while her pendentif pendant serves as a symbol of wealth and status.
This print from "Foreign Fashions and Costumes Ancient and Modern" offers a glimpse into Italian fashion history, capturing not only the beauty of Venetian tradition but also reflecting on the cultural significance attached to clothing and jewelry in that era.
