EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured copperplate engraving, created by Sasso from Giulio Ferrario's Ancient and Modern Costumes of all the Peoples of the World, published in Florence, Italy in 1844, offers a captivating glimpse into the traditional costumes of Tagalog women from Manila, Philippines. The Tagalog people are the largest ethnolinguistic group in the Philippines, and their cultural heritage is rich and diverse. The women in this illustration are adorned in intricately designed clothing that reflects their unique identity. They wear baro't sae, a traditional Filipino blouse and skirt, made of light and flowing fabric. The blouse, called a baro, is typically long-sleeved and features a high neckline and a mandarin collar. The skirt, called a sae, is full and voluminous, reaching down to the ankles or calves. The women's hair is styled in intricate braids, adorned with flowers and beads, adding to their regal appearance. They also wear elaborate jewelry, including necklaces, earrings, and bracelets, made of gold, pearls, and other precious materials. This beautiful illustration not only showcases the beauty and elegance of Tagalog women's traditional attire but also provides a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the history and culture of the Philippines during the 19th century. The meticulous handcolouring adds depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a true work of art that continues to captivate and inspire viewers even today.
