Published in the 1820s-1830s, this extensive series was brought to life under the meticulous direction of the publisher Vittorio Raineri, aiming to document and depict the diverse range of costumes, manners, and customs of people from around the world.

The illustration in question, plate 22, specifically focuses on the dwellings of the Papu tribe located in Rawak. The Papu tribe, indigenous to the region, has been a subject of interest due to their unique cultural practices and architectural styles. This plate, like others in the series, serves not only as a visual record but also as a cultural document, providing insights into the living conditions and environmental adaptations of the tribe during the early 19th century.

Ferrario's work is notable for its attempt to cover a broad spectrum of global cultures, and "Habitations of the Papu Tribe, Rawak" stands out as an important contribution to the understanding of Papuan culture within this context. The illustration is characterized by its detailed depiction and the effort to accurately represent the architectural nuances of the Papu tribe's dwellings.

As part of "Le Costume Ancien et Moderne," this plate is an example of the early 19th-century European interest in ethnography and the documentation of global cultures through art and literature.
