About the Item

The engraving titled "Natives Of Caria, A Province Of Anatolia In Turkey In Asia" depicts two individuals from Caria, a historical region in what is now modern Turkey. The attire and posture of the figures reflect the traditional dress and perhaps the societal roles or occupations within their culture at the time. The scene is set against a backdrop of tents and a landscape that suggests a rural or semi-nomadic lifestyle, providing a glimpse into the life in Caria during the period when the engraving was made. Description: This is a circa 1801 copperplate engraving from George Alexander Cooke's "Universal Geography" . The print is part of George Alexander Cooke's comprehensive work "A Modern and Authentic System of Universal Geography." This book was a significant compilation of geographical knowledge during the late 18th century, offering descriptions and accounts of various parts of the world, influenced by the age of exploration. It includes narratives of famed explorers like Captain James Cook and Ferdinand Magellan, detailing their discoveries and journeys that expanded the European understanding of the globe. Cooke's work served as both a chronicle and reference for the territories and cultures encountered by these voyagers.
