EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored woodcut print depicts an Ainu man from the northernmost regions of Japan, engaged in the traditional fishing practice of his people. Dressed in his national attire, the man wears a conical hat adorned with feathers and a decorated robe, which is fastened with a belt. His laced shoes are typical of Ainu footwear. In his hands, he holds a fishing rod and a knife, which he uses for preparing his catch. A tobacco pipe is tucked between his lips, a common accessory among Ainu men. The intricate details of the man's clothing and accessories, as well as the natural surroundings, reflect the rich cultural heritage of the Ainu people. This image is taken from Auguste Wahlen's "Manners, Customs and Costumes of all the People of the World," published in Brussels in 1845. The print, created by Jean Francois Nicolas Loumyer, provides a glimpse into the traditional fashion and daily life of the Ainu people during the 19th century. The historical significance of this image lies in its ability to capture the essence of a culture that has faced significant challenges in preserving its unique identity in the modern world.
