EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases the exquisite fashion and ornamental details of German women in the late 15th century, as depicted in a woodcut panel from the title page of the album "Reise von Palastina A," held at the Bavarian National Museum. The elegantly dressed woman wears a voluminous, high-waisted gown adorned with intricate embroidery and richly textured fabric. The hem of her garment is decorated with a lush carpet-like embroidery of foliage, reminiscent of the elaborate designs found in Bavarian textiles of the time. The chromolithograph, taken from Dr. Jakob Heinrich von Hefner-Alteneck's seminal work "Costumes, Artworks and Appliances from the Middle Ages to the 17th Century," provides a detailed and vibrant representation of the period's fashion. Dr. Hefner-Alteneck (1811-1903) was a renowned German museum curator, archaeologist, art historian, illustrator, and etcher, whose extensive research and documentation of historical costumes and artifacts continues to be a valuable resource for scholars and enthusiasts alike. The woman's festive attire is further accentuated by the intricate ornamentation of her headdress, which features a delicate arrangement of flowers and foliage, as well as a striking, bejeweled brooch. The influence of the Renaissance period is evident in the harmonious balance of form and color, as well as the attention to detail and craftsmanship. This evocative image, with its rich tapestry of history, art, and fashion, offers a glimpse into the opulent world of German women's clothing during the late 15th century. Hans Holbein's masterful painting techniques and the meticulous lithography by C. Regnier bring the intricate designs to life, making this an essential addition to any collection of historical costumes and textiles.
