Ancient Druidic Ceremony at Stonehenge: A Handcoloured Copperplate Engraving by Verico from Giulio Ferrario's 'Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World' (1847) This handcoloured copperplate engraving by Verico, published in Giulio Ferrario's 'Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World' in 1847, depicts an intriguing scene of an Ancient Druidic ceremony taking place at the iconic Stonehenge monument during the solstice. The Druids, dressed in traditional robes and adorned with intricate jewellery, are seen performing a ritual dance around the monument, their faces expressing deep concentration and reverence. The most striking feature of this illustration is the decorative curtains hung from the stones, each one depicting serpents in intricate detail. The serpent, a powerful symbol in Druidic religion, represents the cyclical nature of life, death, and rebirth, and the interconnectedness of all things. The Druids believed that the serpent was a manifestation of the divine, and that the sun god was represented by the serpent's head. The use of handcolouring adds a vivid and rich quality to the image, bringing the Druids and their ceremony to life in a way that a engraving could not. The meticulous attention to detail in the illustration, from the intricate patterns on the Druids' robes to the delicate rendering of the serpents on the curtains, is a testament to the skill and artistry of Verico and the team at Giulio Ferrario's publishing house. This historical illustration offers a fascinating glimpse into the mysteries of Ancient Druidic religion and the significance of Stonehenge as a sacred site. The image has been passed down through the centuries, remaining a source of intrigue and inspiration for scholars, historians, and those interested in the ancient world.
