EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the 18th century, showcasing a Lapland hut in all its rustic glory. Taken from Aubry de La Mottrayes' "Travels throughout Europe, Asia and into Part of Africa" this engraving transports us back in time to witness the daily life of indigenous people in Scandinavia. The image depicts an enchanting winter landscape with snow-covered trees surrounding the traditional Lapland hut. A fire burns inside, providing warmth and comfort to its inhabitants. A group of locals can be seen going about their daily activities - milking reindeer, cooking over an open flame, and tending to their babies wrapped snugly in carriers. William Hogarth's masterful etching beautifully captures the essence of this remote location, highlighting both the simplicity and resilience of these indigenous communities. The intricate details showcase not only the structure itself but also elements unique to Lapland culture such as tipis and tree houses. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from The Metropolitan Museum of Art collection, we are transported into a world untouched by modernity. It serves as a reminder of our shared human heritage and invites us to appreciate the rich diversity that exists across different cultures and landscapes.
