EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Houses of the Nubians," is an early 19th-century handcoloured copperplate engraving by the renowned Italian artist Antonio Sasso. It is taken from Giulio Ferrari's comprehensive work, "Ancient and Modern Costumes of all the Peoples of the World," published in Florence, Italy, in 1843. The illustration showcases a tranquil scene of Nubian natives residing in their traditional dwellings. The houses, with their distinctive conical thatched roofs, are nestled amidst a lush palm grove. The natives are depicted sitting in the shade, enjoying the cool respite from the African sun. They are engrossed in the simple pleasure of smoking their pipes, an age-old custom that adds to the serene ambiance of the scene. The intricate details in the engraving are a testament to Sasso's exceptional artistic skills. The palm trees, with their fronds swaying gently in the breeze, add a sense of tropical allure to the image. The natives, dressed in their traditional attire, are shown with an air of contentment and ease, reflecting the peaceful way of life in Nubia during that era. This illustration offers a glimpse into the daily life of the Nubian people during the 19th century, providing a valuable record of their rich cultural heritage. It is a reminder of the beauty and diversity of the world's many peoples and their unique customs, as documented by the meticulous observations and artistic talents of the great European illustrators of the time.
