Painting Description
"Plantation in Surinam" is a notable illustration from the early 19th century, specifically around c.1820, created by G. Bramati. This artwork is part of the comprehensive collection featured in "Le Costume Ancien et Moderne," a significant work that aimed to document and illustrate the diverse cultures, costumes, and daily life practices from around the world. The illustration provides a visual representation of life on a plantation in Surinam during the period, offering insights into the agricultural practices, the environment, and the social dynamics of the time.
Surinam, a colony in the northeastern part of South America, was known for its plantations where crops such as sugar, coffee, and cotton were cultivated. These plantations relied heavily on the labor of enslaved Africans, and the illustration by Bramati is an important historical document that sheds light on the conditions and landscape of such plantations. "Le Costume Ancien et Moderne" was an ambitious project led by Giulio Ferrario, an Italian author and publisher, who sought to compile an encyclopedic collection of the world's customs and fashions. Bramati's contribution to this collection, through his depiction of the Surinam plantation, provides a valuable visual record of the era's colonial and economic history.
The illustration is characterized by its attention to detail, capturing not only the physical setting of the plantation but also the attire and activities of its inhabitants. Through such works, "Le Costume Ancien et Moderne" serves as a vital historical resource, offering contemporary audiences a window into the past. Bramati's "Plantation in Surinam" stands out for its historical value, artistic merit, and contribution to understanding the global context of the early 19th century.
