EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving, created by Andrea Bernieri for Giulio Ferrario's "Ancient and Modern Costumes of all the Peoples of the World," published in Florence, Italy, in 1843, showcases an intriguing assembly of Chinese emperors, empresses, and famous men. The portraits include Fo-hi, the Chinese ruler god, depicted with a serene expression and regal attire. Next to him stands Confucius, the revered philosopher, known for his teachings on ethics and morality, shown with a stern yet thoughtful expression. Among the notable figures is Qin Shi Huang, the infamous bookburner, who ordered the destruction of thousands of books to consolidate his power and impose a uniform culture. He is portrayed with a determined and authoritative demeanor. Another figure is the prolific writer Fo-chen, who is depicted with a quill pen in hand, reflecting his literary prowess. The engraving also features Empress Wu Zetian, the only woman to rule as an emperor in Chinese history, shown with a regal and confident expression. Lastly, Emperor Taizong, the founder of the Tang Dynasty, is depicted with a wise and contemplative expression, symbolizing his successful reign and significant contributions to Chinese history. This stunning illustration offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of China, showcasing the iconic figures that shaped its history and left an indelible mark on the world. The intricate details and vibrant colors of the handcoloured copperplate engraving add to its allure, making it a captivating work of art and historical documentation.
