EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Costume of a brother of Charles Magio, 16th century" takes us back in time to the Renaissance era. Created by artist Edmond Lechevallier-Chevignard in 1867, this handcolored lithograph showcases the exquisite attire worn by a noble Venetian gentleman. The subject of this print is dressed in a long violet robe with voluminous sleeves adorned with stola, a traditional garment that symbolizes prestige and status. The attention to detail is remarkable as every intricate fold and embellishment on his clothing is meticulously depicted. The inspiration for this artwork comes from an original miniature painted by Paulo Veronese housed in the Cabinet des estampes at Bibliotheque imperiale in Paris. It portrays one of the brothers of Charles Magio, an esteemed Italian traveler known for his adventures across Europe. Lechevallier-Chevignard's talent shines through as he captures not only the fashion but also the essence of aristocratic life during the 16th century. This engraving offers us a glimpse into history, allowing us to appreciate both the beauty and significance of historical costumes. With its vibrant colors and meticulous details, this print serves as a testament to Lechevallier-Chevignard's skill as an artist and illustrator. It stands as a valuable piece within Georges Duplessis' collection "Costumes historiques des XVIe, XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles" (Historical costumes of the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries), offering viewers an immersive experience into past societies and their rich cultural heritage.
