EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing handcoloured copperplate engraving by Giulio Ferrario, titled 'Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World,' offers a fascinating glimpse into the Russian military during the 19th century. The image showcases various Russian military corps, including the Polish Jannisary in turban (6), Cadet Corps under Catherine (7), Guardsman under Alexander (8), Grenadier (9), and Officer (10). The Polish Jannisary, depicted in the foreground, is easily identified by his distinctive turban and scimitar. The Jannisaries were an elite military unit in the Russian army, originally formed from Christian converts of the Ottoman Empire. They were known for their distinctive attire, which included the turban and scimitar. In the background, the Cadet Corps under Catherine is shown. This corps was established in 1812 to train future military and civil servants. The cadets are depicted in their uniforms, which included a bicorn hat and a shako, a type of tall, cylindrical hat with a visor. The Guardsman under Alexander, represented in the middle, is shown wearing a shako and carrying a sabre. The guardsman was part of the Imperial Guard, which was responsible for protecting the Russian monarch. The Grenadier, also in the middle, is depicted wearing a shako and carrying a musket. Grenadiers were elite infantry units, known for their heavy armor and large grenades. Finally, the Officer is shown in the background, wearing a shako and carrying a sabre. Officers were responsible for leading their troops in battle and making strategic decisions. This engraving provides a unique insight into the various military corps of the Russian army during the 19th century, showcasing their distinct uniforms and weapons. The intricate detail and handcolouring make this an impressive and valuable historical document.
