EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases a Swiss burgherwoman from the mid-16th century, elegantly depicted in a chromolithograph from Hefner-Alteneck's "Costumes, Artworks, and Appliances from the Middle Ages to the 17th Century." The woman is dressed in the traditional attire of the time, donning a high-waisted, voluminous gown with intricate patterns and a fitted bodice. She wears a tall, conical hat adorned with ribbons and a veil, and a pair of long, white gloves. In her right hand, she holds a chalice, a symbol of her religious devotion. The chalice, with its ornate design and delicate handle, adds an air of sophistication to her appearance. At her waist, she carries a large, decorative purse, and at her side, a scabbard holding a sword. This illustration, created by Dr. Jakob Heinrich von Hefner-Alteneck and lithographed by A.G., provides a glimpse into the fashion and lifestyle of the Swiss burgher class during the Middle Ages and the 17th century. Hefner-Alteneck, a German museum curator, archaeologist, art historian, illustrator, and etcher, meticulously documented and preserved the rich history of European art and culture. This image, originally a pen and ink drawing for a stained-glass coat of arms, is a testament to his dedication and expertise. The intricate details and vibrant colors of the chromolithograph bring the past to life, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and complexity of historical fashion and artistry.
