Late Renaissance Venetian Aristocracy by Pauquet and Gatteri

This colored historical print, titled “Noble Dame de Venise”, captures the luxury of 16th-century Venetian high society based on original costume illustrations by Gatteri from 1557. Published by the Pauquet brothers, this engraving offers an invaluable perspective for historical researchers, as it presents a detailed rear and profile view of elite Renaissance tailoring, drapery, and courtly deportment from the Republic of Venice.

Textile Layers and Segmented Slashing Sleeve Details

The noblewoman features a rich steel-blue silk overskirt elegantly pinned up to reveal a heavy, decorative golden petticoat underneath. The tightly corseted bodice is contrasted by voluminous, white-segmented slashed sleeves bound with golden bands, a prime example of late Renaissance textile manipulation. Her ensemble is accessorized with a delicate sheer bridal-style veil draped from her braided hair and a classic circular green feather fan held in her left hand.
