Antique Print of Tatarian Priests and Mendian Priests by Picart, 'c.1730'

About the Item

Antique print titled 'Lamas Prêtres des Tartares - Prêtres Mendians de la Chine (..)'. Original antique print with two images on one plate. The first image shows Lamas, Tatarian priests holding rosaries. In the background a Pagoda can be seen. The second image shows Mendian Priests of China. Two of them are punished for not obeying the rules. In the background is a Pagoda. This print originates from 'Naaukeurige beschryving der godtsdienst-plichten, kerk-zeden en gewoontens van alle volkeren der waereldt', a Dutch edition or its French edition ‘Ceremonies et coutumes Religieuses…’, by A. Moubach, 1727-1738 (French edition 1721-1725). An English edition called ‘Ceremonies and religious Rites of the various nations of the known world….’, appeared in 1733. It was the most elaborate history of world religion published up to that time. Engraved by B. Picart.
