EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured copperplate engraving captures the intricate and vibrant costumes of the Mandingo or Mandinka people of West Africa. The detailed illustration, created by Antonio Sasso in 1843 for Giulio Ferrario's Ancient and Modern Costumes of all the Peoples of the World, showcases the rich cultural heritage and traditions of this African population.
The image depicts a woman adorned in traditional Mandingo attire, standing in front of a hut typical to their habitat. Her chest is proudly displayed, symbolizing her connection to her ancestry and community. The engraving beautifully captures the essence of Mandinka culture, from their unique clothing to their close relationship with nature.
Through this artwork, we are transported back in time to witness the beauty and diversity of African traditions. The meticulous handcolouring adds depth and warmth to the scene, bringing these historical costumes to life before our eyes.
