EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored copperplate engraving, created by Antonio Sasso in 1843 for Giulio Ferrari's 'Ancient and Modern Costumes of all the Peoples of the World,' offers a glimpse into the daily life of the Khoikhoi community residing in the Village of Korah, located along the banks of the Orange River in South Africa. The image portrays a peaceful scene, with several huts nestled among the lush vegetation, their thatched roofs providing shelter to the inhabitants. In the foreground, men from the Khoikhoi tribe, also known as Hottentots, are shown swimming in the river alongside their faithful canine companions. The dogs, an integral part of Khoikhoi culture, assisted their owners in various tasks, including herding livestock and guarding their homes. The intricate details of the engraving, from the textures of the huts and the ripples in the water to the expressive faces of the swimmers and their dogs, offer a vivid and authentic portrayal of life in this South African village during the mid-19th century. The hand-coloring further enhances the image's visual appeal, adding depth and vibrancy to the scene.
