Bride Noble Principal Spalart Sweden
EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored copperplate engraving, created by Robert von Spalart for his Historical Picture of the Costumes of the Principal People of Antiquity and of the Middle Ages, published in Vienna in 1837, captures the essence of a noble bride from Gothland, Sweden during the 16th century. The image showcases the intricate details of the bride's attire, which reflects the opulence and grandeur of the era. The bride is depicted wearing a voluminous, red velvet gown adorned with gold embroidery and lace. Her headdress, a tall, conical structure, is also bedecked with gold and pearls, symbolizing her high social status. In her hands, she carries a bouquet of flowers, a traditional accessory for brides during this time. The woman accompanying the bride, dressed in a simpler yet elegant blue gown, is believed to be a companion or maid of honor. The engraving provides a glimpse into the rich history and culture of Sweden during the Middle Ages, offering a fascinating insight into the fashion and traditions of the noble class. This beautiful and intricately detailed print is a testament to the skill and artistry of Robert von Spalart and the historical accuracy of his work.
