EDITORS COMMENTS
This 16th-century engraving, titled "Man of Slavonia or Dalmatia" offers a glimpse into the rich history and traditional attire of the Balkans. The print showcases a man dressed in an exquisite ensemble that reflects the fashion trends of the era. His red felt hat adds a touch of flair to his appearance, while his damask tunic exudes elegance. Paired with either green or red breeches and felt shoes with leather soles, this gentleman's outfit is both stylish and practical. Carrying a mace and scimitar, he embodies strength and power. The intricate details captured by Christoph Krieger in this woodblock engraving are truly remarkable. Encased within a decorative frame engraved by H. Catenacci and Fellmann, it becomes evident that every aspect of this artwork has been carefully crafted. The image transports us back in time to witness the customs and traditions prevalent during the 16th century in Slavonia or Dalmatia. It serves as a testament to how clothing played an integral role in defining one's social status within society. As we admire this black-and-white print from Florilegius' private collection, we are reminded of the importance placed on preserving historical artifacts like these for future generations to appreciate. This piece not only captures the essence of its subject but also provides valuable insights into our past cultural heritage.
