EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored copperplate engraving captures the elegant and refined image of a Spanish nobleman from the 17th century. Dressed in the finest attire of the time, he exudes an air of wealth and sophistication. The nobleman's attire includes a voluminous, embroidered doublet, a flowing, lace-trimmed shirt, and a sumptuous, velvet cape. His intricately designed hat, adorned with a feather and a badge, sits atop his curly, well-groomed hair. The engraving is taken from Robert von Spalart's Historical Picture of the Costumes of the Principal People of Antiquity and of the Middle Ages, published in 1796. Spalart, a renowned historian and artist, meticulously researched and documented the costumes and appearances of various historical figures and social classes throughout history. This engraving is a testament to his dedication and expertise. The Spanish nobleman depicted in this image is a prime example of the opulence and grandeur of the Spanish court during the 17th century. The intricate details of his clothing, from the embroidery to the lace, reflect the wealth and status of the noble class during this period. The use of handcoloring adds an additional layer of depth and richness to the image, making it a truly captivating and authentic representation of Spanish nobility in the 17th century.
