EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored copperplate engraving by Corsi, taken from Giulio Ferrario's "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World" published in Florence in 1843, offers a fascinating glimpse into the opulent world of Etruscan feasts. The image depicts a convivial scene of Etruscan magistrates reclining on couches, adorned with garlands, as they indulge in a sumptuous banquet. Servants attend to their every need, bringing food and wine on trays, while musicians play the lyre, panpipes, and flute in the background. The Etruscans, also known as the obesus Etruschi or pinguis Tyrrenus due to their portly figures, were renowned for their love of fine dining and luxurious living. The magistrates are dressed in short-sleeved tunics, with some wearing the curule seat, signifying their high rank as presidents or praetors, and judges. An urna, or urn, is also present, symbolizing the importance of the law and legal proceedings in Etruscan society. This historical illustration provides a unique insight into the fashion, customs, and daily life of the ancient Etruscan civilization, making it an invaluable resource for scholars and history enthusiasts alike.
