EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th century print depicts a vibrant and diverse group of people from Manila, the Philippines, donning their native attire. The image transports us back in time to an era of rich cultural heritage and traditional beauty. Manila, the capital city of the Spanish East Indies, was a melting pot of various ethnicities and influences during the 18th century. This is evident in the clothing of the people depicted in the print. Some wear the traditional Filipino baro't saya, a long blouse and skirt, often made of light, flowing fabric, while others don colorful, patterned shirts and pants. Some men are seen wearing the native salakot hats, made of palm leaves, and women wear the jasas, a headdress made of feathers and flowers. The intricate details of the clothing and accessories, such as beadwork, embroidery, and gold jewelry, showcase the skill and creativity of the craftsmen of the time. The people in the print appear to be engaged in various activities, from fishing and farming to socializing and playing musical instruments, reflecting the daily life of the people of Manila during the 18th century. This print offers a rare glimpse into the past, providing valuable insights into the history and culture of the Philippines during a time when European influence was beginning to shape the region. It serves as a reminder of the rich and diverse heritage that continues to influence the Philippines today and is a testament to the resilience and adaptability of the people of Manila.
