EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is a hand-colored copperplate engraving depicting a man and woman from the Mani or Maina peninsula in Greece, as illustrated in Francois Pouqueville's "Travels through More, Albania and several other parts of the Ottoman Empire," published in 1805. The engraving, created by Dell Acqua and hand-colored by Lazaretti, is part of the Most Interesting Voyages (Raccolta de Viaggi Piu Interessanti) collection published in Milan between 1815 and 1817. The Mani Peninsula, located in the southern part of the Peloponnese in Greece, is known for its unique culture and rugged landscape. The man and woman in this image are dressed in traditional clothing, with the man wearing a long, flowing robe and a fez, while the woman wears a long, embroidered dress and a headscarf. They are depicted standing against a rocky backdrop, with the man holding a staff and the woman carrying a large basket on her head. Pouqueville's account of his travels through the Mani Peninsula provides valuable insights into the region's history and culture during the Ottoman Empire. His descriptions of the people, their customs, and their way of life offer a glimpse into a time and place that is now largely forgotten. This beautiful and intricately detailed engraving serves as a visual representation of the rich history and traditions of the Mani Peninsula and its people.
