EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored copperplate engraving, created by Corsi from Giulio Ferrario's "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World" published in Florence in 1843, showcases a breathtaking view of the Neapolitan Crypt or Crypta Neapolitana. This ancient Roman road tunnel, located in Italy, linked Naples to Pozzuoli along the Via Domiziana. The image transports us back in time, as we witness a lively scene unfolding within the Grotta di Posilippo. Men on horseback, dressed in the fashion of the time, are engaged in a grand hunt. Boars and bulls are hunted with the help of dogs and falcons. The etruscans, an ancient civilization from Etruria, are depicted in the background, observing the scene with intrigue. The gilded and silver pateras, or bowls, held by some of the riders, reflect the sun's rays, adding to the overall splendor of the image. The intricate details of the engraving are evident in the textures of the clothing, the patterns on the animals' coats, and the naturalistic depiction of the landscape. The use of hand-coloring further enhances the visual appeal, bringing the image to life with vibrant hues. This enchanting illustration offers a glimpse into the historical fashion and daily life of the past, providing a fascinating insight into the ancient world. The Neapolitan Crypt, with its rich history and stunning beauty, serves as the perfect backdrop for this scene.
