EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored lithograph depicts an Egyptian sea captain proudly posing before a serene seascape. The captain wears a distinctive turban and ornate robes, adorned with intricate patterns and gold accents. In his hand, he holds a long-stemmed tobacco pipe, taking a contemplative puff as he gazes out at the water. The scene is set on a small boat, with a water carrier and various vessels, such as an urn and a cup, nearby. The captain's attire and accessories, including a flask and a decorative sash, further emphasize his status and role as a maritime leader. This image is from Friedrich Wilhelm Goedsche's Complete Gallery of Peoples in True Pictures, a comprehensive ethnographic and anthropological record produced in Meissen, Germany, between 1835 and 1840. The series aimed to document the diverse customs, costumes, and traditions of various peoples around the world, providing a valuable historical record for future generations. The meticulous attention to detail in this lithograph, from the captain's expressive face to the textured fabric of his robes, underscores the importance placed on accurate representation in ethnographic and anthropological studies during this period. The image offers a glimpse into the daily life and appearance of an Egyptian sea captain during the early 19th century, providing a fascinating window into the past.
