Title: "Dignified Poise of a Spanish Noblewoman: A Lithographic Study from 'Costume du Moyen Âge'" Description: This striking lithograph from the historic 1847 anthology "Costume du Moyen Âge" portrays a Spanish noblewoman in traditional attire, captured with an essence of nobility and refined grace.

The noblewoman's headdress, a distinctive feature of her ensemble, is a beautifully patterned headscarf, its intricate design suggesting a status of wealth and sophistication. The scarf is secured around her head and beneath her chin, framing her face and highlighting her serene and composed expression. Beneath the cloak, glimpses of a dark undergarment can be seen, suggesting layers that were typical of the era's fashion. Her right hand extends gracefully, perhaps in a gesture of communication or to display her ring, indicative of her marital status and her family's coat of arms. The lithograph demonstrates an exquisite attention to textile and pattern, which not only conveys the fashion of the period but also the cultural identity and social stature of the noblewoman. As with other pieces in the collection, the background is deliberately left blank, focusing all attention on the subject and her costume. This lithographic work serves as both an artistic and historical document, offering insight into the lifestyle and status of noblewomen in medieval...
