EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Tonkinise in town costume" transports us back to the vibrant streets of 19th-century Vietnam. Created by Y. Pranishnikoff after a photograph, this print beautifully illustrates the story "Trente mois au Tonkin" (Thirty Months in Tonkin) written by Doctor Hocquard. The young girl depicted in traditional Vietnamese attire exudes grace and beauty. Her intricately designed costume showcases the rich cultural heritage of Indochina, with its delicate patterns and flowing fabrics. The elegant hat she wears adds an air of sophistication to her ensemble. Through this artwork, we catch a glimpse of life in Tonkin during that era – a time when French colonial influence was shaping the region's identity. The image captures both the exotic allure and everyday reality experienced by locals. Engraved under the direction of Edouard Charton for publication in "le tour du monde" magazine by Hachette Paris, this piece serves as a visual testament to the exploration and documentation of different cultures during that period. Leonard de Selva's private collection preserves this remarkable artwork for future generations to appreciate. As we admire this engraving today, it reminds us of our shared humanity across time and place while celebrating the unique beauty found within diverse cultures around the world.
