Faustina’s braids exhibition at Palazzo Leoni Montanari, Vicenza
Faustina’s braids: women’s hairstyles and power in the Renaissance
The theme of the exhibition addresses for the first time in a monographic way a fundamental aspect of the art, culture, society and antiquarian studies of the Renaissance: women’s hairstyles. Through a wide-ranging selection of works, from imperial busts to Renaissance ones, from paintings to sculptures, from ancient coins to modern medals, from drawings to printed volumes (with a final neoclassical appendix), we will try to reconstruct the fascinating and complex of fifteenth and sixteenth century hair, the artistic possibilities they offered and their importance in Italian society and fashion.
At Palazzo Leoni Montanari in Vicenza, bordering our Relais Santa Corona!
