EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite work cabinet of Archduke Maximilian of Austria, a man known for his grandeur and refined taste. The image takes us inside the archduke's private sanctuary, located in the magnificent castle of Miramar near Trieste. Built in 1857 when he was declared vice king of Lombardy and Veneto, this opulent space reflects Maximilian's regal status. Engraved by B. Bonnafoux and published in "Le tour du monde" in 1875, this print is a testament to Charles Yriarte's voyage to Istria and Dalmatia four years earlier. It offers a glimpse into the archduke's world through its meticulous details and intricate design. The work cabinet itself exudes an air of sophistication with its ornate furnishings and richly adorned walls. Every element seems carefully curated to inspire creativity and intellectual pursuits. One can imagine Maximilian spending hours engrossed in his studies or engaging in diplomatic affairs within these very walls. This remarkable photograph from Leonard de Selva's collection allows us to travel back in time, immersing ourselves in the lavish lifestyle of European aristocracy during the 19th century. It serves as a reminder that even amidst political responsibilities, individuals like Archduke Maximilian found solace and inspiration within their personal spaces – spaces that were not only functional but also reflections of their refined tastes and aspirations.
