EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite costume of a young man from 14th century Florence, Italy. The attention to detail is remarkable, capturing every element of his attire with precision. The young man wears a vibrant green bonnet adorned with a delicate white veil, adding an air of elegance and mystery to his appearance. His scarlet simar steals the spotlight, featuring enormous hanging sleeves lined in matching green fabric. This striking combination creates a visually stunning contrast that highlights the opulence and grandeur associated with this era. Completing his ensemble is a leather belt, serving both as a functional accessory and an additional touch of sophistication. It adds definition to his waistline while complementing the overall color scheme harmoniously. The painting from which this illustration originates was created by an artist belonging to the Florentine school, known for their mastery in depicting beauty and grace. It was specifically commissioned to illustrate Boccaccio's renowned literary work, Decameron. Paul Mercuri skillfully drew and lithographed this handcoloured illustration underlining its artistic value further. Accompanied by insightful text written by Camille Bonnard, it became part of "Historical Costumes from the 12th to 15th Centuries" published by Levy Fils in Paris in 1860. This mesmerizing image transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate not only the fashion trends but also glimpse into the cultural richness and artistic brilliance that characterized Florence during this period.
