Maggiori informazioni sul libro

This limited and numbered edition features a detailed exploration of a portrait drawing attributed to Leonardo da Vinci, which was once misidentified as a 19th-century piece. The book, housed in a solid slipcase with gold hot foil printings, includes 244 pages filled with 120 images, and is bound with a stitched spine and raised headbands. The introduction by Martin Kemp highlights the significance of the portrait of Bianca Sforza, drawn in 1496 for her wedding to Galeazzo Sanseverino, and its impact on the art world following its reattribution. The text delves into the vibrant culture of Renaissance Courts, examining the clothing, hairstyles, and cosmetics that served as keys to understanding this era. It emphasizes the feminine aspects of power and seduction, showcasing how attire and symbols conveyed authority. The volume offers an enchanting journey through Renaissance fashion, with a particular focus on the young lady depicted in the portrait. Elisabetta Gnignera, a specialist in Medieval and Renaissance dress, contributes a compelling study of the costumes worn by women in Italian and European courts. This work provides a rich and immersive experience into the allure of the Renaissance, enhanced by Kemp's expertise in art history.
