EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored copperplate engraving, titled "Polish King," is an exquisite depiction of a 16th century monarch from the rich historical collection of Robert von Spalart's "Pictures of the Costumes of the Principal People of Antiquity and of the Middle Ages," published in 1796. The Polish king is shown regally attired in his royal robes, adorned with intricate gold and jewel embellishments. His crown, a symbol of his power and authority, sits atop his head, its peaks reaching towards the heavens. The king's expression is serious, yet resolute, reflecting the weight of responsibility that comes with ruling a kingdom. The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth in the 16th century was a complex and dynamic political entity, marked by a unique form of government known as the Golden Liberty. This engraving offers a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of the Polish court during this era, as well as the military might and cultural achievements of the Polish monarchy. The intricate details of the king's costume, from the rich fabrics to the delicate embroidery, are a testament to the artistic and craftsmanship skills of the time. Robert von Spalart's "Historical Picture of the Costumes of the Principal People of Antiquity and of the Middle Ages" was a groundbreaking work in the field of historical illustration. The engravings, which were based on meticulous research and consultation with experts, provided a visual record of the costumes and customs of various historical periods and cultures. This Polish king engraving is a valuable addition to the collection, offering a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of Poland during the 16th century.
