EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century takes us on a journey to Asia, where we witness a scene of utmost luxury and privilege. The focal point of the image is a woman gracefully carried in a palanquin by two devoted servants. Adorned in vibrant colors, her presence exudes elegance and status. The intricate details captured by French artist Stefano Bianchetti transport us back in time, allowing us to immerse ourselves in this exotic world. The illustration comes from "The Twelve Nations" by M. E Fouinet, published in 1861, showcasing the diverse cultures and customs of different Asian countries. As we gaze at this print, we are reminded of the opulence that once existed within these societies. It serves as a testament to the stark contrast between social classes during this era - while some were carried upon others' shoulders with ease and grace, many labored tirelessly just to survive. Bianchetti's skillful hand brings life to every stroke of his engraving technique. Through his artistry, he captures not only the physical beauty but also evokes emotions and curiosity about what lies beyond the frame. This enchanting piece invites us to explore history through visual storytelling. It reminds us that even though times have changed drastically since then, there is still much we can learn from our past encounters with different cultures and their unique ways of life.
