EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored lithograph depicts a group of Soldiers of Linhares, Brazil, proudly wearing their uniforms during the early 19th century. The Soldiers of Linhares were an elite infantry regiment in the Brazilian military, established in 1811 by the Portuguese Crown to maintain order in the province of Minas Gerais. Their distinctive uniforms were made up of blue coats with red lapels and cuffs, white trousers, and black ocelotskin hats, which not only served as protection against the elements but also symbolized the soldiers' status and bravery. Each soldier is equipped with a musket, a powderhorn slung over his shoulder, and a knife and stick at his side. The musket, an essential tool for warfare during this period, was the primary weapon used by the Soldiers of Linhares. The powderhorn was used to carry gunpowder, while the knife and stick were for close combat and survival in the wilderness. This image is taken from Friedrich Wilhelm Goedsche's Complete Gallery of Peoples in True Pictures, published in Meissen between 1835 and 1840. Goedsche's ethnographic work was one of the most comprehensive and accurate records of global peoples and their customs during the 19th century. The handcolored lithograph not only captures the Soldiers of Linhares' military prowess but also provides a glimpse into the history and culture of Brazil during this period. The intricate details of the soldiers' uniforms, weapons, and accessories offer a fascinating insight into the material culture of the time and the importance of military uniforms as symbols of power and identity.
