EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored copperplate engraving, taken from Robert von Spalart's Historical Picture of the Costumes of the Principal People of Antiquity and of the Middle Ages (1796), depicts the Queen of the Amazons, King Priamus of Troy, and Phrygian warriors. The Amazons, a legendary all-female tribe, are renowned for their exceptional warrior skills and independence. The Queen, regally attired in a chlamys, the ancient Greek military cloak, exudes an aura of power and authority. King Priamus, the legendary monarch of Troy, is shown in his royal regalia, also wearing the chlamys. The Phrygian warriors, allies of the Amazons, are depicted in their distinctive headdresses and armor, their chlamys draped over their shoulders. The intricate detail and vibrant colors of the engraving bring the historical figures to life, transporting us back to a time of mythology, warfare, and ancient culture. The chlamys, a versatile garment, was a staple of ancient Greek and Roman military attire. It was worn as a cloak, a toga, or even as a military standard. The use of the chlamys as a symbol of power and authority is evident in this engraving, as both the Queen and King are depicted wearing it. This historical artwork offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich tapestry of ancient history, showcasing the costumes and customs of the Principal People of Antiquity and the Middle Ages. The image of the Queen of the Amazons, King Priamus, and Phrygian warriors, all wearing the chlamys, is a testament to the enduring legacy of these legendary figures and their impact on history.
