EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration, titled "Man and Woman of Albania," is an exquisite copperplate engraving from Francois Pouqueville's "Travels through Morea, Albania, and Several Other Parts of the Ottoman Empire," published in Milan between 1815 and 1817. The image, hand-colored by Lazaretti, offers a glimpse into the daily life of Albanians during the early 19th century. The man in the illustration is depicted wearing a traditional Albanian hat, a fez adorned with a red tassel, and a long, flowing robe. He holds a pipe in one hand, a pipe filled with tobacco in the other, indicating his leisurely enjoyment of the local custom. A musket leans against a nearby tree, hinting at the military prowess and defensive nature of Albanian culture. The woman, dressed in a colorful, flowing dress, is adorned with intricate jewelry, including earrings, necklaces, and bracelets. Her long, dark hair is styled in elaborate braids, and she holds a small child in her arms. The serene expression on her face conveys a sense of warmth and nurturing, highlighting the importance of family in Albanian society. This beautiful illustration, taken from the collection of Giovanni Battista Sonzogno's "The Most Interesting Voyages," is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Albania and the Ottoman Empire during a pivotal period in history. It invites us to explore the world of the past and appreciate the unique traditions and customs that continue to shape the lives of people around the globe.
