About the Item
Renaissance Italian Costumes: Soldier, Young Lady, Florentine Noble
This captivating set of three hand-colored lithographs presents Italian costume designs from the early 15th century, drawn from authentic historical sources and compiled in the 1845 publication "Costumes Historiques des XIIIe, XIVe et XVe siècles." Each figure is richly detailed and offers a rare visual documentation of dress across different classes and regions of Renaissance Italy.
The first plate, titled "Fantassin Italien" (Italian Foot Soldier), shows a man from behind, holding a tall spear. He wears a snug-fitting blue and purple doublet and vivid red hose, with a sword tucked into a green belt, creating a striking contrast. His relaxed yet poised stance and the elaborate spear suggest readiness and discipline, indicative of early Renaissance military styling.
The second figure, "Jeune Italienne" (Young Italian Woman), embodies softness and elegance. Dressed in flowing lilac robes with bright yellow sleeves and matching slippers, she crosses her arms modestly, wearing a serene expression. Her attire, hairstyle, and pose capture a delicate and idealized feminine image of the era.
The third plate, "Noble Florentin" (Florentine Noble), depicts a mature female figure wrapped in a layered ensemble of a blue overdress, violet sleeves, and a pale veil. Her posture and facial expression evoke composure and wealth, offering a more stately and reserved counterpoint to the younger woman.
Together, these prints form a coherent visual narrative of Renaissance fashion, with careful attention to textile draping, vibrant pigments, and personal ornamentation. They are not only valuable as historical references but also as decorative artworks that will appeal to collectors of costume history, academic institutions, and interior decorators alike.
Condition:
The prints are in very good condition with only minimal age-related toning in the margins. Colors remain bright and the paper is clean, with slight foxing not affecting the central imagery. Edges have been cleanly cropped for presentation.
Framing Tips:
To create a striking wall display, mount the prints in a single horizontal row using a neutral-colored mat to separate each image. Choose slender wooden or gilded frames to enhance their historical elegance. UV-protective glass is recommended to preserve the delicate hand coloring. This triptych arrangement would look exceptional in a study, hallway, or any space with classical or academic design themes.
