EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving, created by Nasi for Giulio Ferrrarios Costumes Antique and Modern of All Peoples in Florence, Italy, in 1842, offers a glimpse into the traditional attire and way of life of the Querandi people of the Pampas in Argentina. The image, set in the bustling Calles de los Torres in central Buenos Aires, showcases a group of Querandi men, dressed in ponchos and wide-brimmed hats, gathered around a store displaying an array of horse paraphernalia. The Querandi people, also known as the Querandíes or Querandones, were an indigenous community of the Argentine Pampas, renowned for their equestrian skills and nomadic lifestyle. They were a semi-sedentary people, who lived in temporary settlements and subsisted primarily through cattle herding and agriculture. In this image, the Querandi men are shown selling and trading horse accessories, such as stirrups, bridles, bola (a throwing weapon used for hunting), and lassos. The lash, an essential tool for controlling their horses, is also displayed prominently. The vibrant colours of the ponchos and the intricate patterns of the hats add to the visual appeal of the scene, providing a window into the rich cultural heritage of the Querandi people. The engraving not only serves as a historical record of the Querandi people and their way of life but also highlights the close relationship they shared with their horses, an essential aspect of their identity. This image is a testament to the enduring legacy of the Querandi people and their unique connection to the land and the Pampas of Argentina.
