EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Vergognosi 1590" transports us back to the Renaissance era, offering a glimpse into the intricate world of fashion and social dynamics. Created by Cesare Vecellio or attributed to him, this print is part of a private collection. The image portrays a man draped in robes, his face concealed behind a mask. The figure exudes an air of shyness and shame, as suggested by the title "Vergognosi" meaning ashamed in Italian. The artist skillfully captures these emotions through delicate lines and careful attention to detail. The masked face adds an intriguing element to the composition, leaving us wondering about the individual's identity and motivations. With only eye holes visible on the mask, it becomes clear that this person desires anonymity while still participating in society. A hood covers their head, further emphasizing their desire for concealment. Curiously, an animal horn protrudes from one side of the hood – perhaps symbolizing power or mystique. This engraving is taken from "De gli habiti antichi et moderni di diverse parti del mondo" published by Damniano Lehman in Venice during 1590. It offers us a window into historical clothing styles across various regions of the world during that time period. As we admire this artwork today, we are reminded of how art can transcend time and allow us to explore different cultures and eras with just one glance.
