EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored lithograph depicts a noble Nogai princess and prince from the Caucasus region, captured in the mid-19th century by the skilled artisans of Friedrich Wilhelm Goedsche's Complete Gallery of Peoples in True Pictures. Hailing from the Nogai Horde, a Turkic-Mongolian people, these regal figures represent the rich cultural heritage and history of the Caucasus region. The Nogai princess, adorned in traditional attire, wears a voluminous, embroidered robe, adorned with intricate patterns and vibrant colors. Her headdress, a masterpiece of craftsmanship, features a tall, conical hat, bedecked with beads, pearls, and precious stones. Her delicate features, accentuated by her piercing gaze, convey a sense of strength and grace. The Nogai prince, equally resplendent, dons an ornate, fur-trimmed tunic, signifying his noble status. His headdress, a tall, pointed cap, is adorned with a magnificent feather, symbolizing his connection to the natural world. His stern expression and regal posture exude an air of authority and command. The ethnographic and anthropological significance of this image lies in its ability to preserve the customs, costumes, and history of the Nogai people, a community that has long been shaped by the diverse influences of the Caucasus region. This print offers a glimpse into the lives of these fascinating people, providing valuable insights into their unique culture and traditions.
