The RINASCIMENTO collection by LA BOTTEGA LIVENTINA is inspired by Renaissance female portraits by great Italian painters. This pin is dedicated to the noble Giovanna Tornabuoni, portrayed by the master Domenico Bigordi, called “il Ghirlandaio” (1448-1494).<\/p>\n
Ghirlandaio was one of the most important Florentine masters at the court of Lorenzo the Magnificent. This female portrait is particularly significant for the beauty of the details and the dedication to the unfortunate noblewoman, who died in childbirth at a very young age: ARS UTINAM MORES ANIMUMQUE EFFINGERE POSSES PULCHRIOR IN TERRIS NULLA TABELLA FORET MCCCCLXXXVIII (“Art, wanted the sky that you could represent behavior and the soul, there would be no more beautiful table on earth, 1488 “).<\/p>\n
The decoration in metallic pink soutache, brilliant and essential, creates a modern frame around an iconic, timeless portrait. You can easily wear it on a black jacket or a boucl\u00e9 wool coat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
