EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured copperplate engraving by Giarre and Stanghi, from Giulio Ferrario's "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World," published in Florence in 1847, offers a captivating glimpse into the national costumes of Hungarians during the 18th century. The image showcases an elegant Hungarian lady wearing a pelisse, a long, fitted jacket with a fur collar, over a voluminous skirt adorned with intricate floral patterns. Her hat, known as a kalpac, is adorned with a feather and ribbons, adding a touch of elegance to her ensemble. In the background, a Hungarian peasant woman is depicted in traditional attire, wearing a long, embroidered dress with a wide belt and a headscarf. A Hungarian hussar, a military officer, is also featured, dressed in his distinctive uniform, complete with a fur-trimmed jacket, breeches, and a tall, plumed hat. This illustration provides a fascinating insight into the rich and diverse cultural heritage of Hungary during the 18th century. The intricate details and vibrant colours of the costumes are beautifully captured in this handcoloured engraving, making it a valuable historical record and an exquisite work of art.
