An Ancient Etruscan Wedding Ceremony: A Hand-Coloured Copperplate Engraving by Corsi from Giulio Ferrario's 'Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World' This stunning hand-coloured copperplate engraving by Corsi, from Giulio Ferrario's 'Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World' published in Florence in 1843, captures the essence of an Ancient Etruscan wedding ceremony. The bride and groom, dressed in noble attire, stand hand in hand in front of ornate doors adorned with intricate relief carvings. Above them, winged figures with hammers and swords support the couple, symbolizing strength and protection. Below, winged females with torches illuminate the scene, representing the light and warmth of marriage. The bride and groom are adorned with Tages bracelets on their arms and legs, a symbol of fertility and protection. The groom wears a monster-like helmet, possibly a Volta muzzle, which was believed to ensure the groom's strength and virility. The bride holds a chimera, a mythical creature with the body of a lion, the head of a goat, and the tail of a serpent, which was a symbol of power and protection. The scene is filled with other mythical creatures and symbols, including a dog with a muzzle, possibly a guardian, a warrior with a spear, and a mermaid or marine goddess holding a bas or offering a torch. The intricate details of this engraving provide a glimpse into the rich and fascinating world of Ancient Etruscan culture and traditions, offering a unique and captivating insight into historical fashion and mythology.
