EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored copperplate engraving, created by Robert von Spalart in 1837, captures the essence of the noblewoman and girl of Livonia, a Russian province, during the 16th century. The noblewoman is depicted wearing a velvet hat adorned with intricate embroidery and a fur-lined coat, layered over a richly textured gown. Her regal posture and serious expression convey her high social standing. The young girl, perhaps her daughter, is also dressed in fur-lined garments, including a coat and a hooded cloak. Her hat, while simpler in design than her mother's, is still adorned with fur and velvet trim. The layers of fabric and fur suggest the cold climate of Livonia, while the rich colors and textures reflect the wealth and status of the noble class. The historical accuracy of this image is a testament to Spalart's meticulous research and attention to detail. The engraving is part of his larger work, "Historical Picture of the Costumes of the Principal People of Antiquity and of the Middle Ages," which documents the fashion and culture of various historical periods and regions. The image offers a glimpse into the lives of the noblewomen and girls of Livonia during the 16th century, a time of political and cultural development in Russia. The velvet, fur, and layers of fabric in this engraving serve not only as a visual representation of their wealth and status, but also as a reminder of the rich history and traditions of this Russian province.
