This stunning print captures the elegance and grace of Court women of Burma in their ceremonial dress. The image features a servant bowing respectfully, while the chief counsellor or woonge's wife holds a delicate fan. Beside her stands the privy counsellor or attawoon's wife, exuding poise and sophistication. Completing the group is the counsellor or woondoc's wife, also holding a fan with an air of regality.
Adapted from Michael Symes' An account of an Embassy to the Kingdom of Ava, this handcoloured copperplate drawing beautifully showcases the intricate details of their attire. Engraved by Andrea Bernieri for Giulio Ferrario's Ancient and Modern Costumes of all the Peoples of the World in Florence, Italy in 1844, this piece is a true work of art.
The composition and colors used in this print bring these Court women to life, transporting viewers back to a time when such elaborate ceremonial dress was worn with pride and reverence. Each woman carries herself with dignity and grace, embodying the traditions and customs of Burma's royal court.
