EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the V. A. S. Collection of festival prints showcases a truly delightful banquet organized by the esteemed Signori Piacevoli servants. Created by Stefano Della Bella in 1627, this etching transports us to Florence, where an extravagant feast was held in honor of their protector Prince Giovan Carlo de Medici. The scene depicted in the print unfolds within a grand and opulent room adorned with a coffered ceiling, an elegant chandelier illuminating the festivities below. The walls are graced with paintings depicting vibrant hunting scenes, adding to the ambiance of celebration and merriment. A credenza stands proudly against one wall, displaying exquisite culinary delights that surely delighted all attendees. The entire spectacle is framed by magnificent tableau curtains embellished with the prestigious Medici coat of arms and adorned with game trophies, symbolizing both power and prosperity. Through this remarkable artwork, we catch a glimpse into a momentous occasion filled with joyous revelry and lavish indulgence. It serves as a testament to the refined tastes and social prowess of the Signori Piacevoli society during this period. As we admire this print from Liszt Collection today, it allows us to appreciate not only its artistic beauty but also offers insight into historical events that shaped Renaissance-era Florence.
