About the Item
Title: "Traditional Kamchatdale Portraits: Engravings from 19th-Century Exploration"
These two prints showcase individuals from the Kamchatka Peninsula, illustrating the rich cultural attire and diversity of the local Kamchatdale people.
The left print portrays a woman in a fur-trimmed robe and colorful dress, holding a basket, exemplifying her role in gathering or farming.
The right side features headshots of a man and a woman, each adorned in traditional Kamchatdale attire, highlighting facial tattoos and regional hairstyles.
These prints are from a 19th-century collection exploring the ethnographic diversity of Asia, drawn by the renowned artist C. Mercier, known for his detailed and vibrant depictions of indigenous peoples.
Year Published: Circa 1840s
Technique Used: These are hand-colored lithographs, a popular method in the 19th century for producing vivid, detailed prints. This technique involved drawing onto a smooth limestone block with a greasy medium, then treating the stone with acid to fix the drawing. The stone was then inked, with the ink adhering only to the original drawing lines, and transferred onto paper.
The appeal of these prints lies in their vibrant coloration and meticulous detail, which capture the essence of Kamchatdale cultural attire and expressions with remarkable accuracy and artistic finesse. The illustrations serve not only as a historical record but also as captivating art pieces that invite viewers into the distant past of a lesser-known community.
Keywords: "Kamchatdale prints," "19th-century ethnographic art," "hand-colored lithographs," "indigenous peoples illustrations," "Asian cultural heritage," "antique ethnographic prints," "historical portraits," "traditional costumes illustrations."
