EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enchanting portrait of Claudia - Verge Vestale, a revered ancient Roman Vestal Virgin. Created in 1403 by the talented Master of Berrys Cleres Femmes, this illustration is part of the manuscript De Claris mulieribus, traduction anonyme en francais (Livre des femmes nobles et renommees) by Giovanni Boccaccio. Housed in the prestigious Bibliotheque nationale de France in Paris, this artwork exudes both historical and artistic significance. In this image, Claudia stands gracefully with her head held high, wearing an exquisite hat adorned with delicate gold leaf details. Her vibrant clothing reflects the fashion trends of 15th-century Rome, featuring elegant sleeves that drape elegantly around her arms. Through a window behind her, we catch glimpses of a serene countryside landscape. The artist skillfully captures Claudia's noble presence and religious devotion as she holds a bird delicately in her hands. This interaction between woman and nature symbolizes purity and spirituality associated with vestal virgins. The use of color adds depth to this composition; warm tones highlight Claudia's beauty while contrasting against the cool hues outside the window. The intricate detailing and meticulous craftsmanship make this piece truly remarkable. As we gaze upon this extraordinary print from Verve magazine's July-October 1939 issue, we are transported back to ancient Rome where noble women like Claudia played significant roles within society.
