EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite costume of a Polish king from the 16th century. The engraving, created by Christoph Krieger in 1859-1860, depicts the regal attire worn by this monarch. Adorned with a crown and a brocade cape, he exudes an air of majesty and power. The doublet and hose he wears are meticulously crafted, while the collar, sleeves, and shoes are embellished with precious stones that add to his opulence. The artwork is framed within an intricately designed decorative frame engraved by H. Catenacci and Fellmann. This woodblock engraving was skillfully executed by Gerard Seguin and E. F. Huyot after a woodcut originally created by Christoph Krieger himself. Taken from Cesare Vecellio's renowned publication "Costumes anciens et modernes" this print offers us a glimpse into the fashion of past centuries. It provides valuable insight into historical clothing styles prevalent during this era. The image evokes thoughts of monarchy and royalty as we witness this Polish king donning his elaborate ensemble fit for a ruler. With its rich historical significance, this print serves as both artistry and documentation of Poland's royal heritage in the 16th century.
