Threads of the Past

by Marlee Ebert

This documentary short examines the reconstruction of Renaissance clothing worn by the elite in the City of Urbino during the 13th and 14th centuries. Atelier di Batista association members Carolina Sacchetti (historian) and Roberta Fraternae (tailor) research paintings, texts, and rediscovered period items to design and recreate the historical clothing in order to preserve the city’s rich cultural heritage.
