EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving, created by Migliavacca for Giulio Ferrario's "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World" published in Florence in 1844, offers a glimpse into the daily life of Austrian peasants during the 18th century. The image, titled "Contadini dell Austria al lavoro" or "Austrian Peasants at Work," depicts a scene of rural labor and family life. In the foreground, a ploughman takes a break from his work, resting beside his oxen and plough. His wife or daughter sits nearby, sowing seeds in the rich, fertile soil. The peaceful scene is set against the backdrop of a quaint cabin or cottage, its log walls and thatched roof suggesting the simple comforts of rural life. The Austrian peasants, or contadini, are dressed in traditional attire, reflecting the regional fashion of the time. The men wear loose-fitting shirts and breeches, while the women don long, flowing skirts and aprons. The use of handcolouring adds depth and vibrancy to the image, bringing the scene to life and transporting us back in time. This engraving offers a rare and intimate look into the lives of Austrian peasants during the 18th century, a time when the majority of the population lived and worked in rural areas. It is a reminder of the hard work and dedication required to sustain life in the countryside, as well as the simple joys and pleasures that came with it. The image also speaks to the broader historical context of the time, as Europe underwent significant social and economic changes. The enlightenment was in full swing, and the Industrial Revolution was just around the corner. This scene of rural life, with its focus on family, community, and the natural world, offers a contrast to the urbanization and industrialization that were soon to come.
