About the Item
Title: "Traditional Dress of Lou-Tohou Island Inhabitant, 1844 Lithograph"
Description:
This hand-colored lithograph titled "Habitant de l'Ile Lou-Tohou" (Inhabitant of Lou-Tohou Island) features a figure dressed in traditional attire from Lou-Tohou Island, Asia.
This print is part of "Moeurs, Usages et Costumes de tous les Peuples de Monde" (Customs, Manners and Dress of All the Peoples of the World) by Auguste Wahlen, published in 1844 in Paris. The lithograph was enhanced with Arabic gum on vellum paper, produced by an anonymous engraver following Wahlen's design, with artistic contributions from Evrard Duverger, L. Markaert, and R. King.
Notable Features of the Attire:
- Robe: The figure wears a striking blue robe, characterized by vertical stripes and a voluminous cut, which suggests comfort and style.
- Belt: A red belt with intricate designs emphasizes the waist, adding a splash of color and detailing that likely holds symbolic or social significance.
- Headwear: The headwear is modest yet distinctive, with a red accent that matches the belt, balancing the ensemble.
- Footwear: Bright red shoes with upturned toes, a style commonly seen in various Asian traditional costumes, which might indicate status or regional fashion.
- Fan: The figure holds a multi-colored fan, which is not only a practical item in many Asian cultures but also often used in traditional dances and ceremonies.
Cultural and Historical Insight:
This lithograph provides a visual insight into the traditional dress and cultural artifacts of Lou-Tohou Island, reflecting the customs and lifestyle of its inhabitants during the 19th century. The use of vibrant colors and detailed garment designs in the lithograph serves to attract attention to the rich textile traditions and artistic expressions of the region.
