EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving, titled "Abbigliamenti delle Regine" (Costumes of the Queens), is a stunning depiction of ancient Greek royalty as portrayed on vases. The image features two regal figures, each adorned in rich clothing, surrounded by their attendants. The queen at the left gazes intently into a mirror held by a servant, while the queen on the right engages in conversation with a young man and her deputies. The intricate details of their costumes reflect the grandeur and opulence of ancient Greek society. The queens wear elegant draped robes, adorned with intricate gold embroidery and jewels. Their headdresses are topped with diadems and veils, adding to their regal bearing. The attendants, too, are dressed in fine garments, their hair styled in elaborate braids and adorned with flowers and jewels. This illustration is taken from Giulio Ferrario's "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World," published in Florence in 1842. The engraving is a testament to the enduring fascination with ancient Greek culture and its influence on historical fashion and art. The image provides a glimpse into the lives of ancient Greek queens, their roles as eponymous archons or chief magistrates, and the examination of their appearance and presentation as an essential aspect of their power and authority. The intricate details of this illustration continue to captivate viewers and offer valuable insights into ancient Greek society and its artistic traditions.
