EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored copperplate engraving, created by Verico from Giulio Ferrario's "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World" published in Florence in 1842, depicts a lively and engaging scene of two female Tschenky dancers and two male dancers performing in the Ottoman Empire. The women, dressed in flowing, intricately patterned skirts and ornate headdresses, hold castanets in their hands and gracefully sway their hips in rhythm with the music. The men, dressed in fitted trousers and vests, play various instruments including a lute, violin, horn, and drum. The Tschenky dance, also known as the "La Romeca Danse," was a popular traditional dance in the Ottoman Empire that originated from the Greek communities in Istanbul. The dance was often performed by professional dancers, both male and female, in public settings such as cafes, festivals, and royal courts. The dance was accompanied by live music and involved lively footwork, spins, and intricate hand movements. This engraving is a beautiful representation of the rich cultural heritage of the Ottoman Empire and the influence of Greek traditions on its arts and entertainment. The image is derived from Ignace Mouradgea d Ohsson's "Tableau General de L Empire Othoman," published in Paris in 1790. The intricate details of the dancers' costumes and the lively expressions on their faces make this a stunning and captivating work of art that transports us back in time to the vibrant and diverse world of the Ottoman Empire.
