| সংক্ষিপ্ত: | At the turn of 1500 and until the end of the century Cyprus is under Venetian governance. During this period, the western influences especially Italian appear also in the wardrobe of the Cypriots – the cut of their cloths borrow lines one can observe in Florence, Venice and elsewhere. These fashions survive through portraits of donors, as they appear kneeling in front of the Christ, the Virgin or their saint protector, in icons and frescoes decorating churches and chapels in the island. Further to some aspects of the cloths and the inheritance of the kingdom’s last queen, Caterina Cornaro, we briefly discuss the fabrics – camelots, silk, cotton, damask – produced in the island or imported. Royal gifts, exchanges, donations to monasteries of silk, camelots, gold petticoats, mentioned in chronicles and wills provide evidence regarding the value of these fabrics and cloths, while the anonymous poet of the 16th century reminds us of the symbolism of the colours. |
