EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured copperplate engraving captures a moment in the lives of the Sami people (Lapp) in their traditional octagonal tent, surrounded by a herd of majestic reindeer. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring to life this scene from Giulio Ferrario's "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World" from 1847.
The Sami people, indigenous to Lapland in Norway, are depicted here in their mountainous homeland, showcasing their unique fashion and lifestyle. The octagonal tent serves as both shelter and symbol of their cultural heritage, while the reindeer play a central role in their daily lives as sources of food, clothing, and transportation.
As we gaze upon this historical illustration, we are transported back in time to witness the harmony between humans and nature that has sustained the Sami people for generations. The attention to detail in this engraving allows us to appreciate not only the physical surroundings but also the rich traditions and customs that define these resilient northern peoples.
Through this artwork by Giarre, we gain a glimpse into a world that is both ancient and modern, where tradition meets innovation against a backdrop of breathtaking natural beauty. It is a reminder of the importance of preserving cultural diversity and honoring our connection to the land on which we depend.
