EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving, created by Andrea Freschi after Antoine Cardon and Jean Baptiste Joseph Breton, offers a glimpse into the grandeur and spirituality of the Tartar Buddhist monks in China during the early 19th century. The image features two prominent figures: the Grand Lama, the spiritual and temporal leader of the Tibetan Buddhism, and the Lama of the Eight Tartar Banners, a high-ranking monk from the Mongolian region. Both monks are depicted wearing traditional yellow satin robes and hats, symbolizing their high status within the Buddhist community. The Grand Lama's robe is adorned with intricate designs and fringes, while his hat, known as a mitre, is adorned with a golden topknot and a white umbrella. The Lama of the Eight Tartar Banners wears a similar attire, but his hat is decorated with a red topknot and a golden orb and sceptre. The engraving captures the solemnity and reverence of the two monks, as they sit in a serene environment, surrounded by lush greenery and ornate decorations. The intricate details of their robes and hats, as well as the delicate handcolouring, add to the overall beauty and allure of the image. This engraving, taken from the comprehensive work "China, Its Costumes, Arts, Manufactures, etc." by Henri-Leonard Jean Baptiste Bertin and Jean Baptiste Joseph Breton, offers a valuable insight into the rich cultural heritage of Tartar Buddhism during the early 19th century. It is a testament to the artistic skill and detail that went into documenting the diverse and intriguing world of Chinese art and culture during this period.
