介绍（中）	这些雕刻描绘了来自不同生活阶段的罗马女性的服装，让人想起了Cesare Vecellio和Giacomo Franco更雄心勃勃的系列，致力于威尼斯的习俗和服装模式。与这些例子类似，这些版画很可能是作为书籍插图创作的，尽管众所周知，富有进取心的贝尔泰利在许多不同的背景和格式中重复使用他的发明宫廷小姐基本上都是有教养的妓女。她们中的一位（图6）出现在其他"诚实"的女性中，反映了一个现实，即妓女是16世纪社会的主流，根据当时盛行的道德和宗教氛围，她们棘手的存在要么令人遗憾，要么被容忍。有趣的是，贝尔泰利的妓女，就像佛朗哥、维切利奥和朱利奥·罗曼诺的妓女一样，戴着一缕珍珠。正如那个时期的法律文件充分证明的那样，珍珠尤其与妓女有联系，并且经常被妓女和妓女的客户和赞助人送给他们，作为"肉欲交易"的报酬
介绍（英）	These engravings illustrating the costumes of Roman women from different stations of life recall the more ambitious series by Cesare Vecellio and Giacomo Franco devoted to Venetian customs and modes of attire. Similar to those examples, these prints were likely created as book illustrations, though the enterprising Bertelli was known to reuse his inventions in a number of different contexts and formats. Courtesans were essentially cultivated prostitutes. The presence of one of them (plate 6) among the cast of otherwise "honest" women reflects the reality that courtesans were a staple in sixteenth-century society, their intractable presence either rued or tolerated depending on the prevailing moral and religious climate of the day. It is interesting that Bertelli's courtesan, like those of Franco, Vecellio, and Giulio Romano, wears a strand of pearls. Pearls were particularly associated with courtesans, as legal documents of the period amply attest, and were frequently given to courtesans and prostitutes by their clients and patrons as payment for "carnal commerce."
