EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-tinted copperplate engraving by Carini, after Giulio Ferrario, depicts an elevation of Solomon's Temple in Jerusalem as it may have appeared during the 19th century. The intricate design of the temple is showcased in great detail, with cherubs and figures of columns set before the vestibule. The scene is filled with a sense of serene tranquility, as women play cards under a canopy pavilion, their children nearby. The children engage in playful activities, while a nanny looks on, keeping a watchful eye. In the foreground, a tea set rests on a table, suggesting a moment of reprieve from the daily routine. The garden surrounding the temple is adorned with beautiful flowers and lush greenery, adding to the idyllic setting. The use of handcolouring adds depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a stunning historical illustration of ancient and modern fashion, as depicted in Ferrario's Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World. The influence of Eastern art is evident in the design of the temple, with elements reminiscent of Chinese and Japanese architecture. This is further emphasized by the inclusion of Zi and Pai playing cards, which are traditional Chinese cards used for gambling and divination. The overall effect is a captivating blend of historical, cultural, and artistic elements, transporting us back to a time of beauty and elegance.
