EDITORS COMMENTS
Laura De Noves, also known as Laura Sade, was a woman of enchanting beauty and mystery who lived in Avignon, France, during the 14th century. Her captivating story has been immortalized in poetry by the famous Italian poet, Petrarch. In this evocative image, Laura is depicted wearing a stunning blue dress, a color often associated with the Virgin Mary and symbolizing purity, faithfulness, and devotion. The intricate details of the dress, from the delicate embroidery to the elegant draping, reflect the exquisite craftsmanship and artistic sophistication of the time. Laura De Noves was celebrated for her beauty, grace, and intelligence, but her life was far from ordinary. She was the subject of Petrarch's most famous sonnets, which expressed his deep and unrequited love for her. Despite her fame and admiration, Laura's life was marked by tragedy. She was married to a man named Hugues de Sade, who was known for his cruelty and brutality. According to legend, Laura's husband arranged for her to be poisoned, and she died at a young age. Despite the sad ending to her story, Laura's legacy as a symbol of beauty, love, and devotion has endured throughout history. Her image has been immortalized in art and literature, and her story continues to captivate and inspire generations of poets, artists, and lovers. This beautiful image of Laura De Noves in her blue dress serves as a poignant reminder of the power of love and the enduring allure of the past.
