1. Title: A Brazilian Cotton Farmer: An Epochal Scene of Rural Life in Nineteenth-Century Brazil This handcolored lithograph, titled "A Brazilian Cotton Farmer," is an exquisite ethnographic artifact from Friedrich Wilhelm Goedsche's Complete Gallery of Peoples in True Pictures, published in Meissen, Germany, around 1835-1840. The image offers a vivid and authentic portrayal of a Brazilian farmer, skillfully riding his horse through the countryside, laden with bales of cotton. The farmer is dressed in a traditional smock, which is a loose, long-sleeved shirt commonly worn by rural laborers in Brazil during the 19th century. He is armed with both a musket and a saber, signifying his readiness to protect himself and his livelihood from potential threats. The horse, a sturdy and powerful animal, carries the heavy bales with ease, demonstrating the symbiotic relationship between man and beast in rural life. The lithograph is a testament to the rich and diverse cultural heritage of Brazil, showcasing the customs, costumes, and daily life of its people during a pivotal period in the country's history. The cotton industry was a significant economic force in Brazil, and this image offers a glimpse into the lives of those who labored in the fields to produce this valuable commodity. The intricate handcoloring adds depth and texture to the image, making it a visually stunning and historically valuable piece. The lithograph is a precious resource for scholars, anthropologists, and historians, providing insights into the social, economic, and cultural fabric of Brazil during the 19th century. In conclusion, this image of a Brazilian cotton farmer riding his horse through the countryside, laden with bales of cotton, is an essential addition to any collection of ethnographic and historical art. It offers a unique and authentic perspective into the lives of the people of Brazil during a pivotal period in their history.
