EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph, titled "Burgher Women of Augsburg," showcases the elegant and ornate fashion of the upper class women in Augsburg during the late Middle Ages and the 18th century. The image, created by Dr. Jakob Heinrich von Hefner-Alteneck in 1889, is a stunning representation of the opulence and refinement of the time. The women in the print are depicted wearing full skirts, bodices, and intricately designed ruffs. The skirts, which are voluminous and layered, are adorned with delicate patterns and rich textures, reflecting the wealth and status of the women. The bodices, fitted and corseted, accentuate the hourglass figure, while the ruffs, made of lace and linen, frame the face and neck, adding a touch of elegance and sophistication. The silver case for cutlery, carried by some of the women, is a testament to their affluence. The case, with its intricate designs and ornate details, would have been an essential accessory for formal dinners and social gatherings. The overall effect of the print is one of grandeur and luxury, transporting us back in time to an era of opulence and refinement. Dr. Hefner-Alteneck, the creator of this masterpiece, was a renowned German museum curator, archaeologist, art historian, illustrator, and etcher. His meticulous attention to detail and dedication to preserving the history of fashion and appliances is evident in this stunning chromolithograph. The print was lithographed by Joh. Klipphahn and published by Heinrich Keller, further adding to its historical significance and artistic merit.
