EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a glimpse into British antiquity, specifically the pre-Roman period before the 1st century. The image depicts Catini and Caledonian inhabitants of Scotland, showcasing their unique attire and adornments. The men are portrayed with intricate tattoos covered in blue woad, a traditional dye used by ancient Britons. The Catini man on the left is depicted carrying a cat and a club with four spikes, while the Caledonian holds an aseth (spear). Both figures exude strength and resilience, embodying the rugged beauty of the northern plains and forests of Great Britain. Created by Robert Havell from an illustration by Charles Hamilton Smith, this hand-colored aquatint offers a rare insight into the original costume of the inhabitants of the British Isles. The attention to detail in capturing their clothing, weapons, and body art is truly remarkable. This historical artwork serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage and provides us with a window into the lives of ancient peoples who once roamed these lands. It is a testament to their craftsmanship and creativity that continues to inspire awe and fascination centuries later.
