EDITORS COMMENTS
Vol II Pl. 55 Korah Hottentots of the Cape on the move, captured in this vibrant photo print, showcases a fascinating glimpse into the lives of these indigenous tribespeople from South Africa. Taken from Le Costume Ancien et Moderne, a renowned publication by John Barrow in the early 19th century, this image offers a vivid portrayal of the Korah Hottentots' nomadic lifestyle. In this scene, we witness a group of men, women, and children adorned with traditional attire and headdresses as they traverse through the captivating landscapes of Cape Peninsula. The adults carry spears and feather plumes while carefully transporting their belongings and even little ones on their backs. A mother lovingly cradles her baby amidst this mobile community. The photograph beautifully captures not only their unique culture but also highlights their resilience and adaptability to survive in challenging terrains. The presence of oxen suggests that these tribespeople relied heavily on animal husbandry for sustenance during their migratory journeys. This exquisite lithograph is part of Giulio Ferrario's collection Costumi dei. . . [respective countries/areas], which was published in the 1820s-1830s. Its intricate details were engraved by Fumagalli et al. , adding depth to every element depicted. As we admire this historical artwork from Fine Art Finder's Stapleton Collection today, let us appreciate its significance in preserving cultural diversity and celebrating humanity's rich heritage.
