EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Vitia hominem monstrosum. . . 1597" was created by the talented artist Robert Boissard in the 16th century. The image showcases a fascinating scene of characters engaged in conversation during a masquerade ball in Renaissance France. In this intriguing snapshot, we see men and women dressed in elaborate costumes, each portraying unique personas. Among them stands a hunchbacked man, adding an element of curiosity to the gathering. Princess Rosetta, one of the central figures depicted here, captivates attention with her regal presence. The engraving beautifully captures the essence of this historical era through its intricate details and skilled craftsmanship. It transports us back to a time when such gatherings were not only social events but also opportunities for people to assume different identities and engage in lively conversations. Boissard's work is renowned for his ability to capture character and emotion within his portraits. Through this print, he invites us into a world where individuals from all walks of life come together under one roof - their masks serving as both disguise and invitation for connection. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art Washington, this artwork serves as a testament to our rich cultural heritage. It reminds us that art has always been an avenue for storytelling and exploration throughout history.
