EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative handcoloured copperplate engraving by Migliavacca, published in Giulio Ferrrario's Costumes Antique and Modern of All Peoples (Il Costume Antico e Moderno di Tutti i Popoli) in 1842, we witness a group of nomadic Puri people making their way through the dense Amazon jungle. The Puri were an indigenous people from the southern Amazon region, known for their semi-nomadic lifestyle and their skilled use of weapons such as spears and sticks. The engraving captures the raw beauty and primal strength of these people as they navigate the lush, untamed wilderness. The intricate details of their traditional attire are on full display, with the men wearing loincloths and carrying their weapons, while the women wear elaborate headdresses and adornments. Despite their striking appearance, the Puri people are now considered extinct, with their last known members assimilating into other indigenous groups or modern society in the late 20th century. This engraving serves as a poignant reminder of the rich cultural heritage and diverse peoples that once inhabited the Amazon rainforest. Anthropologists and scholars of the time were fascinated by the customs and manners of indigenous peoples around the world, including the Puri. Ferrrario's Costumes Antique and Modern of All Peoples was a groundbreaking work that aimed to document and preserve the traditional dress and ways of life of various races, tribes, and nations from different parts of the globe. This engraving is a testament to the importance of anthropological research and the value of preserving the cultural heritage of indigenous peoples.
