About the Item

Antique Print - Indigenous Warriors, Early 19th Century South America - Ferrario-Bonatti Line & aquatint etching with original hand colouring on wove (vellin) paper. This compelling hand-colored etching depicts a scene of indigenous warriors in South America during the early 19th century. The print, part of Giulio Ferrario's "Il Costume Antico e Moderno,". Showcased in this artwork are indigenous warriors in striped garments, engaging in a preparation or defense scenario against a backdrop that includes traditional weaponry and a horse-drawn artillery piece. The scene is vividly detailed, emphasizing the unique cultural attire and martial practices of the group. Crafted by D.K. Bonatti, this print is a fine example of the ethnographic interests of the era, providing insights into the military tactics and daily lives of indigenous populations in South America. The print’s coloration is exceptionally well-preserved, offering a vibrant look into the past. Ideal for collectors of military history, ethnographic art, and South American culture, this print not only enhances a collection aesthetically but also serves as an educational piece, reflecting the diverse and complex histories of indigenous communities during a transformative period in their interaction with European influences. Note that there is an old dry damp spot in the bottom margin, not touching the image - but leaving it perfectly well for matting or framing. The colors are exquisite.
