EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving depicts the picturesque view of Quebec, Canada, along the Saint Lawrence River, circa 1800. The serene scene is filled with the charm of a bygone era, with several sailing ships anchored in the bay, and a watermill situated in the foreground, its wheels turning gently with the flow of the river. Beyond the bustling town, the lush greenery of the forest unfolds, teeming with diverse wildlife and vibrant foliage. The Tupi-Guarani, Maguta, Tucuna, Tikuna, Tukuna, Tecunas, and other indigenous tribes of the region are known for their rich cultural heritage and deep connection to nature. The engraving also offers a glimpse into their unique customs and rituals. In the dense forest, a group of Tupi-Guarani people can be seen celebrating a birth or a spiritual festival. The men, wearing intricately designed body paint and animal masks, dance around a tree, while the women and children look on. The central figure, adorned with a fearsome demon mask, represents the shaman, or Jurupari, who plays a crucial role in their community as a spiritual leader and healer. The Jurupari, believed to possess supernatural powers, communicates with the gods and guides the tribe through various aspects of life, including hunting, agriculture, and healing. This stunning illustration, taken from Giulio Ferrario's "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World," showcases the beauty and complexity of the indigenous cultures of Brazil during the 18th century. The image is a testament to the rich tapestry of traditions and beliefs that have shaped the history of the Americas.
