Derelitta, 1860s

EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph captured by Pierre-Louis Pierson in the 19th century. The image showcases Countess Virginia Oldoini Verasis di Castiglione, an Italian aristocrat known for her beauty and elegance. Dressed in a stunning crinoline dress with a hooped skirt, she stands gracefully in full length. The countess exudes an air of mystery and allure as she gazes into the distance. Her refined clothing reflects the fashion trends of the time, highlighting her status as a member of high society. The intricate details of her petticoat and carefully arranged hair further emphasize her aristocratic heritage. Pierson's skillful use of albumen print technique adds depth to this historical portrait. The contrast between light and shadow enhances the countess's striking features while capturing every delicate nuance on her face. This remarkable piece is now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, serving as a testament to both Pierson's artistry and Countess Castiglione's enduring legacy. As we admire this photograph today, we are transported back to a bygone era where opulence met gracefulness. Through "Derelitta" viewers can glimpse into the world of French photography during the 1860s while marveling at Countess Castiglione's timeless beauty that continues to captivate audiences even after centuries have passed.
