EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "A Romanised Briton and a Feryllt" offers a glimpse into the rich history of ancient Britain. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases two figures from different cultural backgrounds. The scene depicts a Romanised Briton and a Feryllt, both dressed in distinctive costumes that reflect their respective origins. The Romanised Briton stands tall, donning an elegant cloak and dress reminiscent of Roman fashion. In contrast, the Feryllt exudes strength and craftsmanship as he works diligently at his forge. Clad in traditional attire with intricate details, he wields a hammer to shape weapons essential for defense. This artwork is part of Samuel Rush Meyrick and Charles Hamilton Smith's book on "The Costume of the Original Inhabitants of the British Islands". It provides valuable insights into the clothing styles worn by ancient Britons during Roman times. Through this image, we witness how cultures intertwine within Britain's historical narrative. The fusion between native traditions and those brought by conquering Romans is evident here. This print serves as a reminder of our diverse heritage and how it has shaped modern-day Britain. Displayed within private collections today, this engraving invites us to explore our roots further while appreciating the craftsmanship behind its creation. As we delve into these visual archives, we gain deeper appreciation for our ancestors' resilience and adaptability throughout centuries past.
