EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a series of miniatures from the Golden Bull, a significant illuminated manuscript created for King Wenceslaus IV of Bohemia in 1365. The handcoloured copperplate engravings by Innocente Migliavacca beautifully depict various scenes and characters from this historical document. In the foreground, we see a walled city with majestic towers rising against the backdrop of a vibrant wheat field. This setting exudes an aura of both tranquility and grandeur. Moving closer to the city, our attention is drawn to the imposing Kaiserpfalz or imperial castle at Nuremberg, symbolizing power and authority. The central miniature portrays a regal figure on horseback surrounded by princes, counts, and barons paying homage to their king. The Archbishop Elector can be seen riding alongside them, his mitre and cloak emphasizing his ecclesiastical status. A coat of arms banner proudly displays their noble heritage. Migliavacca's meticulous attention to detail brings these historical figures to life while preserving their authenticity. Each stroke captures not only their clothing but also their demeanor and stature. This remarkable illustration is part of Giulio Ferrario's renowned work "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World". It serves as a testament to both fashion history enthusiasts and those fascinated by medieval times alike. With its rich colors and intricate design, this print transports us back in time to experience firsthand the opulence and significance surrounding these miniatures from the Golden Bull.
