EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph, titled "Wife kissing a young man behind her husbands back," is a fascinating glimpse into the intriguing world of Italian fashions during the late 15th century. The image, created by the renowned German museum curator, archaeologist, art historian, illustrator, and etcher, Dr. Jakob Heinrich von Hefner-Alteneck, is based on a color illustration housed in the Berlin Print Room, Kupferstichkabinet. The scene depicts a woman in an act of betrayal, as she passionately kisses a young man while her husband's back is turned. The husband, a nobleman of the time, is dressed in a fur-lined tunic, hose, and boots, his serious expression betraying no suspicion. The young man, likely a lover, wears a cape and a Saint Barbara matteo di Giovanni basilica san Domenico fresco-inspired outfit. The setting of the image is a church, with the Uffizi gallery's Catherine of Alexandria fresco visible in the background. The intricate details of the costumes and the rich colors used in the illustration provide a vivid portrayal of the fashion trends of the time. Dr. Hefner-Alteneck's meticulous attention to detail and historical accuracy is evident in this stunning work of art. The lithograph, created by C. Regnier, is a testament to the artist's dedication to preserving and sharing the art, costumes, and appliances of the Middle Ages and the 17th century. This image offers a glimpse into a world of intrigue, passion, and fashion that continues to captivate and inspire us today.
