EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving, drawn and engraved by Antoni Carboni from Giulio Ferrario's Ancient and Modern Costumes of all the Peoples of the World, published in Florence, Italy in 1844, offers a fascinating glimpse into the naval scene of Vietnam during the mid-19th century. The image showcases a diverse collection of Vietnamese watercraft navigating a tranquil river. In the foreground, a traditional Vietnamese sampan, with its distinctive curved prow and square sail, glides effortlessly through the water. Nearby, a rowboat, manned by two oarsmen, cuts through the water with purpose. A canoe, expertly crafted from bamboo and other local materials, is moored to the riverbank, ready for use. Further along the river, a Vietnamese junk, with its multi-tiered deck and ornate decorations, dominates the scene. This large, traditional sailing vessel was commonly used for trade and transportation along the country's extensive waterways. Nearby, a sleek yacht, with its elegant lines and raised deck, suggests the influence of European maritime technology. The intricate details of the vessels, from their rigging to their decorative elements, are beautifully rendered in this exquisite engraving. The vibrant handcolouring adds depth and richness to the image, bringing the scene to life and transporting us back in time to the rivers of Vietnam over 175 years ago.
