EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored copperplate engraving, taken from Robert von Spalart's Historical Picture of the Costumes of the Principal People of Antiquity and of the Middle Ages (1796), depicts a Phrygian priest in deep contemplation as he sits before King Priamus, both adorned in the distinctive Phrygian cloak. The Phrygian tribe, originating from Anatolia in Asia Minor, was renowned for its religious fervor and mystical practices. The Phrygian priest is shown with a shaved head and wearing a tall, conical hat, symbolizing his sacred role within the community. King Priamus, the legendary monarch of Troy, is depicted in regal attire, draped in the iconic Phrygian cloak. The cloak, characterized by its distinctive fringes and wide, open front, was a symbol of Phrygian heritage and was believed to have protective powers. The king's regal bearing and the priest's solemn expression suggest a significant exchange of wisdom or a moment of deep reverence. The intricate details of the engraving, from the delicate folds of the cloaks to the intricate patterns on the priest's hat, showcase the masterful skill of the engraver. This image offers a glimpse into the rich history and cultural traditions of the ancient Phrygian civilization.
