EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, titled "Portrait of Lucina Brembati" painted by Lorenzo Lotto in 1523, transports us back to the Renaissance era. The image showcases a mysterious woman illuminated by the soft glow of moonlight. Her delicate features are enhanced by an array of exquisite jewels adorning her headdress and fingers. Intriguingly, she holds a horn in her hand, symbolizing both superstitious beliefs and wealth during that time. The rings on her fingers sparkle with opulence while pearls cascade down from her headdress like shimmering tears. The artist pays meticulous attention to detail, capturing every nuance of Lucina's attire. She wears a luxurious fur stole made from sable and weasel fur, signifying her status as an affluent lady. This choice also adds depth and texture to the painting. Lotto masterfully uses light and shadow to create a sense of depth within the composition. The moonlight delicately caresses Lucina's face, highlighting her porcelain skin against the dark background. "Portrait of Lucina Brembati" is not only a stunning representation of Renaissance art but also serves as a window into society at that time. It reflects both the opulence associated with nobility through its intricate details and symbols while hinting at prevalent superstitions surrounding horns and lunar influences. Giuliano Valsecchi skillfully captures this timeless masterpiece through his photographic print, allowing viewers today to appreciate Lotto's talent for immortalizing beauty on canvas.
