EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored lithograph depicts a bagpiper and a female dancer from Tripoli, Libya, showcasing the unique and intriguing costumes of the North African region during the early to mid-19th century. The image is taken from Friedrich Wilhelm Goedsche's Complete Gallery of Peoples in True Pictures, published in Meissen around 1835-1840. The bagpiper, dressed in a long, flowing robe, wears a tall, conical hat adorned with intricate patterns and a fringe. His bagpipes, a traditional musical instrument in Libya, are slung over his shoulder, and he holds the pipes in one hand while using the other to control the drone reeds. The piper's face is expressive, suggesting the intensity and passion that comes with playing this instrument. The female dancer, clad in a colorful, layered outfit, is a vision of grace and beauty. She wears a veil, which covers her hair and falls to the ground, adding an air of mystery and allure. Her skirts are made of multiple layers of richly colored fabric, gathered at the waist and flowing outwards. She also wears trousers underneath, a common practice in traditional Libyan attire. The dancer's arms are raised, and her hands are adorned with intricate jewelry, adding to the overall elegance of her costume. This image offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Tripoli and Libya during a time when European travelers were documenting and recording the customs, costumes, and traditions of various peoples around the world. The handcolored lithograph, with its intricate details and vibrant colors, serves as a testament to the beauty and diversity of human expression and creativity.
