11th 12th Noblewoman Principal Spalart
EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored copperplate engraving, created by Robert von Spalart for his Historical Picture of the Costumes of the Principal People of Antiquity and of the Middle Ages in 1796, depicts a noblewoman from Spain during the late 11th or early 12th century. The noblewoman is elegantly dressed in traditional Spanish attire, with a voluminous gown adorned with intricate patterns and rich fabrics. Her headdress, a complex arrangement of veils and jewels, is a testament to the opulence and sophistication of the Spanish aristocracy during this period. The late 11th and early 12th centuries were a time of great cultural and artistic development in Spain, with the Christian Reconquista bringing new influences from the north and the Moorish Al-Andalus culture continuing to shape the region. This noblewoman's attire reflects the blending of these influences, with elements of both Christian and Moorish design evident in the detailed patterns and fabrics. Robert von Spalart's Historical Picture of the Costumes of the Principal People of Antiquity and of the Middle Ages was a groundbreaking work, providing a detailed record of the fashion and costume of various historical periods and cultures. This engraving of the Spanish noblewoman is a stunning example of the meticulous research and artistry that went into the creation of this important historical record.
