Inhabitants of the Kingdom of Naples, 1860. Creator: Unknown
Inhabitants of the Kingdom of Naples, 1860. Italians in regional costume....our Artist has made a picturesque grouping of some of the inhabitants of the kingdom of Naples. The profound melancholy of the entire group, notwithstanding the pipings of the sampognaro, offers a marked contrast to the outbursts of frantic joy with which, according to all accounts, the Neapolitans everywhere welcome their deliverer Garibaldi. The woman standing in the middle in such a listless attitude, with the tambourine by her side, is a native of Sorrento. To her left is a sampognaro (piper) of the Abruzzi; and at his back is seated a woman of Caraffa. At the opposite side of the picture a woman of Potenza is seated; and by her side is a young fisherman of Naples. The man in the background is a peasant of Calabria; and the woman carrying a child is a native of Viggiano'. From "Illustrated London News", 1860

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Inhabitants of the Kingdom of Naples, 1860,' showcases a group of Italians in their regional costumes, captured by an unknown artist. The image presents a striking contrast between the profound melancholy expressed on the faces of the subjects, despite the reported joyous celebrations for their deliverer, Garibaldi. The woman in the center, hailing from Sorrento, is depicted in a listless attitude, holding a tambourine. To her left stands a sampognaro (piper) from the Abruzzi region, with a woman of Caraffa behind him. On the opposite side, a woman from Potenza is seated, accompanied by a young fisherman of Naples. The man in the background is identified as a peasant from Calabria, and the woman carrying a child is a native of Viggiano. The intricate details of their traditional apparel, from the layered skirts and shawls to the intricate headpieces and bare feet, offer a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the various regions of the Kingdom of Naples in Italy during the 19th century. This photograph, originally published in the 'Illustrated London News' in 1860, offers a captivating window into the lives of these individuals and their unique fashions, providing a valuable record of history and tradition.
