About the Item

Italian Renaissance Dress: Noblewoman, Page, and Soldier in Fine Detail Description: This vibrant set of three hand-colored lithographs captures the essence of Italian fashion during the late Middle Ages and early Renaissance. Taken from the celebrated 1845 series on historical costume, these plates present a finely observed window into the stylistic diversity of the 14th and 15th centuries. Each figure stands elegantly poised, rendered with careful linework and bold washes of color, making the trio an exceptional acquisition for collectors, designers, and anyone passionate about historical dress. Plate No.18 depicts a "Noble Italienne" (Noble Italian Woman), dressed in an elegant layered gown of soft blue and rose, with rich fur-lined sleeves. Her demure posture, turned gently to the side, reflects the grace and refinement associated with upper-class women of the era. Her headdress and golden trim details suggest wealth and status, making her an ideal representation of nobility in pre-Renaissance Italy. Plate No.19 shows the "Jeune Page" (Young Page), a youthful male figure adorned in mint green tights, a crimson doublet, and a long flowing yellow-and-navy cape. His red hat with feather and dagger at the waist suggest a courtly role, likely in service to a noble household. His relaxed stance, fashionable garments, and long flowing hair embody the decorative spirit of Italian courts during the quattrocento. Plate No.20 features the "Costume Militaire" (Military Costume), showing a soldier or officer from behind. The bold red and white puffed sleeves, detailed striped trunk hose, and fine black hat with plumage all speak to martial flair and Renaissance opulence. This figure, with a rapier and confident posture, offers a visual counterpoint of authority and spectacle. Together, these prints form a compelling trio that illustrates the breadth of Italian fashion and social class distinctions. They are ideal for historical costume research, academic framing, or period-style interior decoration. Condition: The prints are in very good condition. Coloring remains vivid, and the paper is clean with only faint foxing and age-toning to the margins. No tears or repairs are visible. Image areas are crisp and unmarred. Framing Tips: For an elegant display, align the three prints horizontally in matching frames with ivory or off-white mats to enhance their rich colors. Slim gilt or dark wooden frames will complement their historical subject matter. To protect the hand coloring, use UV-protective glass. This triptych layout works beautifully above a console table, in a hallway, or within a study or library setting.
