EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured copperplate engraving, taken from the 1843 publication "Ancient and Modern Costumes of all the Peoples of the World" by Giulio Ferrario, offers a captivating view of the Island of Saint Helena in the early 19th century. The image, created by Andrea Bernieri after an illustration by Beaugean, depicts the picturesque landscape of the island's port and town, nestled amidst lush greenery and rolling hills. Saint Helena, a volcanic island located in the South Atlantic Ocean, was a significant stopover for ships sailing between Europe and the East Indies. The island's strategic location made it a vital trading post, and it was also a place of exile for notable historical figures such as Napoleon Bonaparte. The engraving showcases the island's natural beauty, with its crystal-clear waters, sandy beaches, and verdant vegetation. The town, with its whitewashed buildings and red-tiled roofs, is a charming contrast to the rugged terrain that surrounds it. The presence of several ships in the harbour suggests the island's bustling commercial activity during that period. The intricate detail and vibrant colours of this handcoloured copperplate engraving transport us back in time, offering a glimpse into the history and culture of Saint Helena during the early 19th century. It is a testament to the skill and artistry of the engraver and the illustrator, as well as the beauty and allure of this remote and fascinating island.
