EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving, titled 'Man, woman and baby of Corea, Korea, 1818', is an exquisite example of the detailed and intricate work produced by Mary Anne Venning for her educational publication, 'A Geographical Present: Being Descriptions of the Principal Countries of the World'. Published by Darton, Harvey and Darton in London during the Regency period, Venning's work aimed to educate the public about various countries and their people through vivid descriptions and illustrations. The image depicts a Korean family, consisting of a man, a woman, and their baby. The man is dressed in a traditional Korean robe, with a wide-brimmed hat adorned with a feather. The woman is elegantly attired in a long, flowing robe, accessorised with a parasol and a fan. The baby, wrapped in swaddling clothes, gazes up at its mother with curiosity. A servant, dressed in simpler attire, stands behind the woman, holding a tray with what appears to be tea. The engraving showcases the traditional Korean costumes and the cultural practices of the time. The use of handcolouring adds depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a visually stunning representation of the people and customs of Korea during the early 19th century. Mary Anne Venning was a prolific writer and tutor, known for her educational books on geography, conchology, and mineralogy. Her 'Geographical Present' was a popular and influential work, providing a valuable insight into the world for the curious and the educated alike. This image is a testament to her dedication to accurate and detailed representation of the world and its people, making it an invaluable resource for historians, cultural scholars, and anyone interested in the history of Korea and its rich cultural heritage.
