EDITORS COMMENTS
"This handcoloured copperplate engraving, titled 'Man and Woman of Persia,' is an exquisite illustration from Mary Anne Vennings' educational book 'A Geographical Present: Being Descriptions of the Principal Countries of the World,' published in London by Darton, Harvey and Darton in 1818. The image showcases the traditional attire and accessories of a man and woman from Persia, which was also known as Hindostan or Hindustan during the Regency and Georgian eras. The man, dressed in a turban, cloak, tunic, sash, and harem pants, holds a scimitar at his side. His attire reflects the rich cultural heritage of Persia, which was renowned for its textiles, metalwork, and intricate designs. The man's turban, adorned with intricate patterns, adds an air of sophistication and elegance to his appearance. The woman, also dressed in traditional attire, wears a turban with a veil, a cloak, and a long, flowing dress. Her shawl is draped over her shoulders, adding an extra layer of warmth and comfort. The woman's veil, a common practice in Persian culture, is a symbol of modesty and respect. The background of the image features an elephant carrying a howdah, a palanquin used for transportation, adding to the exotic and intriguing setting of the illustration. The handcoloured details bring the image to life, making it a fascinating glimpse into the past and the rich cultural traditions of Persia during the early 19th century." Mary Anne Vennings was a prolific writer and educator, known for her works on geography, conchology, and mineralogy. Her 'Geographical Present' was a popular educational resource, providing readers with detailed descriptions and illustrations of various countries around the world. This image is a testament to her dedication to preserving and sharing the knowledge of diverse cultures and traditions.
