EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored copperplate engraving, created by Andrea Bernieri for Giulio Ferrario's "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World" published in Florence in 1847, depicts a pivotal moment in the Trojan War. The Amazons, legendary female warriors, are shown coming to the aid of the embattled Trojans at Troy. At the top left, Queen Hecuba of Troy is seen cradling her son Astyanax and mourning the loss of her husband King Priam, who stands welcoming Penthesilea, the queen of the Amazons, at the top right. The center left image captures Priam in deep sorrow, mourning the death of his beloved son Hector. In the center right, Andromache, Hector's widow, holds an urn in a quiet moment of reflection. Seven Amazons, each armed with shields, weapons, helmets, and a horse, are depicted at the bottom of the image, symbolizing their fierce and formidable nature. The scene unfolds in a grand courtyard, with a magnificent temple and a hexagonal column in the background. The serene Baalbek temple ruins, located in the Beqaa Valley of Lebanon, may have served as inspiration for the temple's design. This historical illustration not only showcases the intricate details of ancient costumes but also highlights the rich cultural exchange between different civilizations. The Amazons' arrival at Troy is a testament to the complexities and intricacies of the Trojan War, a tale that continues to captivate and inspire generations.
