Venetiaanse dame, rijk gekleed voor het 'Festa della Sensa' 1598

Christoph Krieger's 1598 engraving, "Venetian Lady, Richly Dressed for the 'Festa della Sensa'," captures a woman adorned in elaborate attire, typical of the time. The "Festa della Sensa" was a significant religious festival in Venice, and the woman's dress reflects the grandeur of the occasion. The intricate detail of her gown and the decorative border surrounding the image create a sense of opulence and historical context. The engraving, a small but detailed work, provides a glimpse into Venetian fashion and society during the late 16th century.
