EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving, titled 'Man and woman of Savoy or Savoie, 1818,' depicts a street scene in Naples, Italy, showcasing the traditional costumes and livelihood of Savoyard entertainers. The man, dressed in a simple tunic and wearing a broad-brimmed hat, carries a large box of props on his back. He is likely a juggler or magician, preparing to entertain the crowd. The woman, elegantly dressed in a shawl and apron, plays a lute with an expression of deep concentration. A young boy, wearing a simple tunic and hat, accompanies her on a triangle. The Savoyards, also known as the Savoie people, were a tribe native to the Savoy region in the western Alps, straddling modern-day Italy and France. Mary Anne Venning, a prolific author and tutor of the early 19th century, included this image in her educational book 'A Geographical Present: Being Descriptions of the Principal Countries of the World.' The intricate details and vibrant colors of this engraving transport us back to the Regency and Georgian eras, offering a glimpse into the rich cultural tapestry of Europe during that time.
