EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored woodcut print depicts an Arabian nobleman, dressed in traditional attire, proudly posing for the viewer. The nobleman wears a tall, conical hat, adorned with intricate gold embroidery and a red tassel, which adds a regal touch to his appearance. He is clad in a long, flowing cloak, also embellished with gold thread and intricate patterns, which is draped over his shoulders and fastened at the waist with a belt. The nobleman's robe is equally ornate, with elaborate embroidery and rich colors adorning the fabric. He wears stockings that reach up to his mid-calf, held up by garters, and slippers on his feet. This image is taken from "Manners, Customs and Costumes of all the People of the World," a comprehensive work by Jean Francois Nicolas Loumyer and Auguste Wahlen, published in Brussels in 1845. The work aimed to provide a detailed record of the customs, manners, and traditional dress of various peoples around the world. The meticulously crafted woodcut print showcases the nobleman's elegant attire, which is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the Arab world during the 19th century. The use of vibrant colors and intricate details in the print adds to its visual appeal and historical significance. This image offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the fashion and traditions of the Arabian nobility during this period.
