Costume Print: Female of Civita Castellana, 1820 Hand-Colored Engraving
This engaging hand-colored engraving depicts a woman in traditional attire from Civita Castellana, a picturesque town in central Italy. Published in 1820 by Baldwin, Cradock & Joy, this print is part of an ethnographic series that documented the regional costumes and daily life of 19th-century Italy. It captures the elegance, practicality, and regional variation in women’s clothing across Italy’s diverse landscapes.
The woman stands confidently on a rustic path with lush greenery and rolling hills behind her, suggesting a harmonious connection to the natural world. She wears a vibrant multi-colored dress with a blue apron, a bright orange and red skirt with intricate borders, and a white blouse with a lacy edge. Her attire is complemented by a woven shawl draped over her shoulder and red shoes that peek out from beneath her skirt. Her hair is styled traditionally, adorned with decorative elements that add to the overall effect.
Balanced on her head is a large bundle of green foliage, likely a crop or fodder, showcasing her strength and role in agricultural life. She also carries a long wooden staff or tool, reinforcing the image of her as a hardworking woman rooted in the rhythms of rural Italian life. This careful composition highlights not just the beauty of her costume but the dignity and strength of women in 19th-century Italian society.
The hand-coloring is vivid, bringing life and depth to the engraving’s fine lines. Such prints were prized in the 19th century by European and English audiences, offering a glimpse into the customs and costumes of different Italian provinces.
Condition:
This antique print is in very good condition, with minor age-related toning and light foxing that add to its antique appeal. The colors remain bright and striking, retaining their original hand-painted richness.
Framing tips:
To enhance this colorful and engaging image, frame it with a soft cream or warm beige mat and a classic wooden or antique gold frame. This will complement the bright colors of the woman’s clothing and highlight the warm, earthy charm of the rural scene.
