EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored copperplate engraving, created by Sasso for Giulio Ferrario's "Ancient and Modern Costumes of all the Peoples of the World" published in Florence, Italy in 1837, offers a glimpse into the traditional attire and adornments of the Native Americans of Nootka. The image features a Nootka man with a tattooed brow and nose ring, wearing a woven hat and an animal-skin cloak. His earrings and facial piercings add to his intriguing appearance. A woman, also adorned with jewelry and a woven hat, cradles a baby in a papoose on her back. The Nootka people, who inhabited the west coast of Vancouver Island, are known for their rich cultural heritage and their skillful use of natural resources. This illustration showcases their traditional clothing and adornments, which were essential for protection against the elements and for expressing their unique identity. The intricate details of the engraving, from the textures of the woven hats to the delicate beadwork on the clothing, highlight the artistry and craftsmanship of the time. This image provides a valuable record of the Native American cultures of the past and offers a window into their history and traditions.
