EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate drawing, created by Andrea Bernieri after Francois Solvyns from Giulio Ferrario's Ancient and Modern Costumes of all the Peoples of the World, published in Florence, Italy in 1844, offers a vibrant and intriguing glimpse into the multicultural scene of Calcutta during the 19th century. The image showcases an array of nationalities that were prominent in India at the time, including Northern Indians, Mongols, Persians, Mughals, Muslims, Arabs, Chinese, Malay, Armenians, British, and Dutch. The Northern Indians, depicted in the foreground, are dressed in traditional attire with intricate patterns and bright colors, reflecting the rich heritage of the region. Further back, a Mongol man, identified by his distinctive hat and robe, stands next to a Persian gentleman, dressed in a long coat and turban. The Mughal and Muslim figures, with their ornate clothing and accessories, add to the regal atmosphere of the scene. Arab merchants, recognizable by their headscarves and robes, are engaged in business transactions with Chinese traders, who are dressed in long robes and conical hats. A Malay man, wearing a sarong and headdress, is shown playing a musical instrument, while an Armenian man, dressed in European-style clothing, interacts with a British officer in the background. This stunning illustration, with its meticulous attention to detail and rich use of color, offers a fascinating window into the diverse and complex cultural landscape of Calcutta during the 19th century. The various nationalities depicted in the image highlight the city's role as a melting pot of different civilizations and the enduring influence of their unique traditions.
