EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Wallachian Round, Performed by the Tsiganes and Danced by the Second Regiment Musicians at the Home of Prince Ghika, Ghospodar, Wallachia, 1839," is a stunning representation of a cultural moment in history, created by the renowned French artist, Denis Auguste Marie Raffet. The image, which dates back to the 19th century, depicts a lively circle dance taking place in the home of Prince Alexandru II Ghica, the Ghospodar of Wallachia. The Tsiganes, also known as Romany people, are seen in their traditional costumes, engaging in the traditional Wallachian dance called the hora. The second regiment musicians, dressed in military uniforms, are also participating in the dance, adding an extra layer of excitement to the scene. The black and white lithograph, which was produced using the lithotint technique, showcases the intricate details of the clothing and the dynamic movements of the dancers. The panoramic view of the room, with its ornate decorations and various onlookers, further emphasizes the grandeur of the event. This rare and precious artwork is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Wallachia during the 19th century and offers a glimpse into the past through the skilled lens of Auguste Raffet.
