Painting Description
"Emperor Chien Lung carried in Triumph" is the eighteenth plate in the series from the work "Le Costume Ancien et Moderne" by the Italian author Giulio Ferrario, commonly known as Jules Ferrario. Published in the 1820s-1830s, this comprehensive historical and ethnographic encyclopedia of world dress and customs was illustrated with hand-colored plates, showcasing the diversity of cultural attire and ceremonies from various time periods and regions. The plate in question depicts the Qianlong Emperor, one of the most renowned rulers of the Qing Dynasty in China, being carried in a ceremonial procession, a scene that reflects the grandeur and pageantry associated with imperial power during his reign.
The Qianlong Emperor, whose reign lasted from 1735 to 1796, was known for his patronage of the arts, military conquests, and the expansion of the Chinese empire to its greatest extent. The illustration captures the opulence of the Qing court and provides a visual representation of the emperor's exalted status within Chinese society. The work of Ferrario, including this plate, is significant for its attempt to document and preserve the visual aspects of historical costumes and cultural traditions at a time when such resources were scarce.
"Le Costume Ancien et Moderne" was published by Gaetano Zancon, an Italian printer known for producing works with high-quality illustrations. The detailed engravings and vibrant colors of the plates made the publication an important reference for scholars and enthusiasts of historical fashion and customs. The plate of Emperor Chien Lung, along with the rest of the series, serves as a valuable historical record and a testament to the intricate artistry involved in early 19th-century book production.
