About the Item
Source these engravings: The publication "Picturesque Representations of the Dress and Manners of the Russians," which includes sixty-four colored engravings with descriptions. The writer of this work is William Alexander, and it was published by John Murray in 1814.
The four engravings depict traditional attire of Tartar individuals from various regions, as stated:
1. **Tartar of Kazan:** The individual is portrayed wearing a long, vibrant red coat with elaborate blue and yellow trimmings and a decorative pattern along the hem and open front edges. They have a green turban-like headwear and appear to be engaged in a gesture or dance, with their hands extended.
2. **Female Tartar of Kazan:** This engraving shows a woman in a blue traditional dress with full sleeves and a high, gathered waist. She wears ornamental earrings and a necklace, and her head is adorned with a fur hat. She is depicted in a welcoming pose with one hand raised.
3. **Female Tartar of Tchatska:** The woman here is clothed in a red dress similar in style to the first individual, with a richly embroidered and tasseled sash across her chest. Her head is covered with a decorated cap, and she holds her hand out in a gesturing manner.
4. **Female Tartar of the Nagai Tribe:** The attire includes a red dress, similar to the others, with blue cuffs and a distinct blue apron-like front piece decorated with star patterns. The ensemble is complemented by a blue and gold belt, and her head is covered with a white cap with red trim.
These engravings are detailed and meticulously colored, capturing the intricate patterns and designs of the traditional clothing. Such images were created with the intention of educating and fascinating a Western audience with depictions of cultural diversity within the Russian empire. The artistry involved in the engravings showcases the fashion and offers insight into the identities of these groups, contributing valuable information to the historical textile and cultural records.
