Painting Description
The "First disembarkation of the French at the Portuguese outpost at Dille, Timor, plate 5 from 'Le Costume Ancien et Moderne'" is a notable illustration by Felice Campi, featured in the extensive work "Le Costume Ancien et Moderne." This publication, which translates to "Ancient and Modern Costume," is a comprehensive visual documentation of the diverse attire and customs of various cultures around the world. Created in the early 19th century, the series is renowned for its detailed and vivid depictions, offering a valuable historical record of the period's global fashion and cultural practices.
Felice Campi, an Italian artist, contributed significantly to this ambitious project, which was overseen by the publisher and editor Giulio Ferrario. The work aimed to provide an encyclopedic view of the world's costumes, spanning different eras and regions. Plate 5, specifically, captures a moment of historical and cultural significance: the arrival of French explorers at the Portuguese-controlled outpost in Dille, Timor. This illustration not only highlights the encounter between European explorers and the local environment but also reflects the broader context of colonial expansion and cultural exchange during that era.
The scene depicted in the plate is rich with detail, showcasing the attire of both the French and Portuguese figures, as well as elements of the local landscape and architecture. The meticulous attention to detail in the clothing and surroundings provides insight into the period's fashion and the interactions between different cultures. The illustration serves as a visual narrative, conveying the complexities and dynamics of early 19th-century colonial encounters.
"Le Costume Ancien et Moderne" remains a significant historical resource, and Campi's contributions, including the depiction of the disembarkation at Dille, are valued for their artistic merit and historical accuracy. This particular plate stands out as a testament to the era's exploratory ventures and the intricate tapestry of cultural interactions that characterized the age of exploration.
