EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored print from the 1800s showcases the diverse and vibrant People of Annam, a region in Indochina (now Vietnam). The image captures both men and women adorned in traditional attire, providing a glimpse into their rich cultural heritage. The men are depicted wearing stylish clothing, complete with intricate hats that reflect their fashion sense during this era. Some can be seen holding weapons such as spears and lances, hinting at their military background or perhaps highlighting the importance of self-defense in colonial times. Meanwhile, the women exude grace and elegance with their beautifully crafted dresses and sandals. They hold fans delicately, adding an air of sophistication to their appearance. This illustration offers a rare insight into the fashion trends prevalent among Vietnamese women during this period. As a French colony at that time, Annam's history is deeply intertwined with its colonial past. This print serves as a valuable historical artifact showcasing Southeast Asian culture under foreign influence. Preserved through time, this antique print not only celebrates the beauty of Annam's people but also provides us with an opportunity to appreciate their unique traditions and customs from centuries ago.
