EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving, titled 'Styrian Peasants with Donkey' dates back to 1818, taken from Mary Anne Vennings' educational book 'A Geographical Present: Being Descriptions of the Principal Countries of the World'. Vennings, a prolific writer and tutor of the early 19th century, penned numerous works on geography, conchology, and mineralogy. The image portrays a scene of rural life in the Austrian region of Styria. Two peasants, a man and a woman, are depicted in traditional attire, their clothing reflecting the national customs of the time. The man wears a simple, high-waisted linen shirt, a short waistcoat, and a pair of breeches. His head is covered with a felt hat, a common accessory for rural laborers. The woman, in turn, dons a long, full-skirted dress, a veil covering her head and chest, and a white apron. In her hands, she carries a basket and a milkpail, suggesting her daily chores. Their companion is a donkey, laden with a large pack, likely carrying their goods to market or to be sold to nearby towns. The peaceful, idyllic scene is reminiscent of the Regency and Georgian eras, with the woman's mourning dress hinting at the loss of a loved one, a common occurrence during this time. The image offers a glimpse into the daily life of the Styrian peasantry, providing a valuable record of the region's history and culture. The handcoloured detail adds depth and vibrancy to the engraving, making it a captivating addition to any collection of historical or geographical imagery.
