EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving, created by Nasi for Giulio Ferrario's "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World" published in Florence in 1837, offers a fascinating glimpse into the traditional costumes of the inhabitants of Schwyz, a canton located in central Switzerland. The image showcases the distinctive attire of the Schwyzers and Vallesians during the 18th century. At the center of the composition, a bride adorned in her wedding finery captivates our attention. She wears a small, round cap, ornamented with flowers, and accessorizes with delicate earrings and a necklace. The bride's dress is adorned with intricate patterns and a full apron, symbolizing her status as a married woman. Surrounding the bride are other inhabitants of Schwyz, both men and women. The men wear traditional Lazy Susans, which are long, pleated skirts worn by men in the Alpine regions. Their shirts are tucked into their skirts, and they don simple hats. The women, like the bride, wear round caps and aprons, but their blouses are adorned with intricate patterns and lace. This historical illustration provides a valuable record of the traditional costumes of the people of Schwyz during the 18th century. It offers a unique insight into the fashion and cultural traditions of this region of Switzerland, which remains an important part of the country's rich heritage.
