EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored lithograph, titled "Tatar of the Steppes with Pipe, Dagger, and Crook," is an intriguing depiction of a Tatar man from the steppes, as captured in Friedrich Wilhelm Goedsche's Complete Gallery of Peoples in True Pictures. The image offers a glimpse into the daily life and customs of the Tatars during the mid-19th century. The Tatar man is shown wearing traditional clothing, including a long, flowing robe and a tall, conical hat. In his right hand, he holds a long-stemmed pipe, which was a common accessory for Tatars and other nomadic peoples of the region. The pipe, used for both smoking and socializing, was an essential part of their culture. In his left hand, the man holds a curved dagger, a traditional weapon used for hunting and self-defense. The dagger, with its intricately designed hilt, is a testament to the craftsmanship and artistic skills of the Tatars. The man also holds a crook, a shepherd's staff, which suggests that he may have been a herder. The presence of a farmhouse in the background further reinforces this idea, as it indicates that the man may have lived in a semi-nomadic lifestyle, moving with his herds from one pasture to another. The lithograph is a valuable ethnographic and anthropological resource, providing insights into the material culture, customs, and costumes of the Tatars during this period. Goedsche's Complete Gallery of Peoples in True Pictures was a groundbreaking work, documenting the diversity of the human race and contributing to the growing field of anthropology. This image, in particular, offers a fascinating glimpse into the lives of the Tatars of the steppes, a people whose history and traditions continue to captivate scholars and enthusiasts alike.
