EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving, created by Sasso for Giulio Ferrario's Ancient and Modern Costumes of all the Peoples of the World published in Florence, Italy in 1837, offers a rare glimpse into the daily life of an Inuit communal house in Greenland. The image is filled with a sense of warmth and community, as women cook over an open fire, nursing their babies, while others tend to their young children. The interior of the house is adorned with furs and animal hides, providing insulation against the harsh Greenlandic climate. In the foreground, a woman holds a pot filled with fish, likely freshly caught, while another woman prepares a meal for her family. A mother cradles her baby close, keeping him warm as she goes about her tasks. In the background, a dog lies by the fire, adding to the cozy atmosphere. The use of handcolouring adds depth and vibrancy to the image, making it all the more striking. The Inuit people, also known as Eskimos, have a rich cultural history that has been shaped by their unique environment. Their communal living arrangements were an essential aspect of their survival, allowing them to work together and share resources during the long, cold winters. This engraving provides a valuable insight into their way of life, offering a glimpse into the past that continues to captivate and inspire us today.
