About the Item

Title:"Circassian and Imeretian Princes in Traditional Attire, 1844 Lithographs" This horizontal compilation features two lithographs from Auguste Wahlen's 1844 series, "Moeurs, Usages et Costumes de tous les Peuples de Monde," depicting princes from Circassia and Imeretia in traditional attire. These prints, made using handcoloured lithography, highlight the distinctive cultural dress and accessories of these regions in Asia. The Circassian prince is adorned in a decorative military-style outfit, complete with armor and a bow, symbolizing his warrior status. The Imeretian prince's attire is similarly martial but incorporates more vivid colors and a less formal style, reflecting the different ceremonial and functional aspects of his region's attire. The attractiveness of these prints lies in their vibrant coloration and meticulous detail, which not only make them visually striking but also serve as valuable historical records of cultural heritage and traditional dress. The technique of handcoloured lithography allows for precise detail and rich hues, enhancing the visual impact and historical authenticity of each figure. Keywords: - Antique Circassian prints - Imeretian historical attire - Handcoloured lithographs - 19th-century cultural costumes - Auguste Wahlen artwork - Collectible historical prints - Traditional warrior attire lithographs - Asian prince costumes - Ethnographic art prints - Vintage military fashion prints These keywords would help collectors, historians, and art enthusiasts locate prints that offer insights into the traditional and ceremonial attires of historical figures from diverse cultural backgrounds, particularly those from lesser-known regions.
