EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Chasuble, an exquisite piece of religious attire from Italy dating back to the 15th century. Created by an unknown artist, this antique garment is a true testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of that era. The chasuble features intricate details and vibrant colors that have stood the test of time. The fabric itself is a combination of silk warp float-faced satin weave with supplementary pile warps forming cut voided pile on pile velvet. It is further embellished with couching padded couching and laid work techniques, using silk and gilt metal strip wrapped silk in satin padded satin and split stitches. The edges are adorned with an opulent silk gilt metal strip, adding a touch of luxury to this religious vestment. The orphrey linen plain weave adds another layer of texture and decoration to the overall design. Displayed against a black background in this studio shot, every detail comes alive, allowing us to appreciate the skillful weaving and embroidery techniques employed in its creation. This Chasuble serves as both a symbol of faith within Christianity and as a remarkable example of decorative arts from Italy during the 15th century. Preserved at the Art Institute Chicago, this heritage artwork continues to inspire awe among visitors who marvel at its beauty while contemplating its historical significance within liturgical practices.
