This stunning handcoloured copperplate engraving captures a House in Kumasi, Kingdom of Ashanti (Ghana) during the early 19th century. The intricate details of the architecture and design showcase the traditional craftsmanship and artistry of the African civilization at that time.
The image, part of Giulio Ferrario's Ancient and Modern Costumes of all the Peoples of the World from 1843, provides a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage and unique habitat of the people living in Kumasi. The vibrant colors used by Antonio Sasso bring this historical scene to life, highlighting the beauty and complexity of indigenous African architecture.
As we gaze upon this engraving, we are transported back in time to witness a snapshot of daily life in Ghana during the 19th century. The building stands as a testament to centuries-old traditions and customs passed down through generations, reflecting both practicality and aesthetic appeal.
