EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to Goa, India in the year 1818. The image showcases a man and woman adorned in traditional attire, providing us with a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of this vibrant region. Their headdresses, embellished with feathers, add an air of regality to their appearance. The couple's clothing consists of tunics and cloaks that are intricately designed and handcoloured. These garments not only reflect their individual style but also represent the fashion trends prevalent during that era. This remarkable copperplate engraving is part of Mary Anne Vennings' educational book titled "A Geographical Present". Venning was a renowned writer who delved into various subjects such as geography, conchology, and mineralogy during the early 19th century. Her work aimed to provide readers with detailed descriptions of different countries around the world. As we admire this print, we find ourselves transported to a time when Goa was thriving with its unique blend of cultures and traditions. It serves as a testament to the beauty and diversity found within Indian society. Through this photograph, we gain insight into the lives of these individuals who were undoubtedly proud representatives of their tribe or nation. This image captures not just their physical appearance but also hints at their stories waiting to be discovered by those curious enough to delve deeper into history's tapestry.
