Languages of publication
Abstracts
L’obiettivo principale dell’articolo è esaminare come il gusto e la sensibilità per la moda di Bona Sforza siano stati influenzati da sua madre, Isabella d’Aragona e dall’ambiente italiano, prima del suo arrivo in Polonia. Nella prima parte l’autrice cerca di ottenere una risposta alla domanda su come la moda rinascimentale aveva influenzato l’aspetto e il modo di vestire di Bona. Per dimostrare le sue tesi, l’autrice propone una propria versione della traduzione dei testi, che gettano nuova luce sull’argomento. In particolar modo degna di nota è la descrizione del matrimonio di Giuliano Passero, Giuliano Passero cittadino napoletano o sia prima pubblicazione in istampa, delle Storie in forma di Giornali (Napoli, 1785). La nuova traduzione presenta delle differenze rispetto alla versione di Władysław Pociecha, pubblicata negli anni Cinquanta. Nella seconda parte dell’articolo è stato analizzato l’abito cerimoniale e i gioielli indossati dalla giovane Bona nel suo unico ritratto, realizzato probabilmente in Italia all’incirca nel 1518. La xilografia, inclusa in De Sigismundi regis temporibus liber III di Jost Ludwik Decjusz nel 1521, non rendeva riconoscibile precisamente le caratteristiche del viso e i dettagli dell’abbigliamento della giovane regina.
The main goal of the article is to examine how queen Bona Sforza’s taste and interest in fashion has been influenced by her nearest milieu – including her mother, Isabella of Aragon – since her childhood in Italy and until her arrival in Poland. In the first part of the text, the author seeks to obtain an answer to the question of how the Renaissance fashion could influence Bona’s look and garments. The author proposes her own translations of several sources which shed new light on the subject. The description of wedding celebrations written by Giuliano Passero, Giuliano Passero cittadino napoletano o sia prima pubblicazione in istampa, delle Storie in forma di Giornali (Napoli, 1785) is especially important for this article. The new translation of this text differs occasionally from that published by Władysław Pociecha several years ago. In the second part of this article, the author analyses ceremonial dress and jewellery which we can see on the earliest preserved portrait of Bona, painted most likely in Italy, around 1518. The woodcut, included in Jost Ludwik Decjusz’s De Sigismundi regis temporibus liber III in 1521, could not precisely depict the facial features and details of the young queen’s apparel.
