About the Item
Costume Print: Woman near the Bridge of Lodi, 1820s Hand-Colored Engraving
This charming hand-colored engraving captures a woman in traditional costume standing near the iconic Bridge of Lodi in Italy. The print is from an early 19th-century travelogue or ethnographic series that documented regional dress and architecture across Europe. In the foreground, the woman wears a deep red and white ensemble with a richly colored bodice, a flowing skirt, and an apron, typical of the period’s rustic attire near Lodi. Her hair is adorned with decorative golden ornaments, adding a touch of elegance to her simple yet beautiful outfit.
The background scene features the historic Bridge of Lodi, an important crossing over the Adda River that has been a vital part of local history since the medieval period. Two children in traditional dress are shown at the foot of the bridge, adding a narrative element to the scene. This interplay of figures and architecture creates a nostalgic and picturesque tableau that evokes the charm of 19th-century Italy.
The engraving was published in London in the early 1820s, as noted by the printed text at the bottom. Such prints were highly valued as souvenirs and educational pieces for European and English audiences eager to learn about the customs and costumes of the continent. The artistry of the hand coloring, with its warm and earthy palette, brings life to the delicate engraving lines and creates a harmonious balance between the figure in the foreground and the architectural landmark in the background.
Condition:
