[Detail of Laputan clothing]
-
Description
-
Gulliver describes Laputan clothing as having a motif that combined suns, moons, and stars, with various musical instruments, including violins, flutes, harps, trumpets, guitars, as well as other instruments that were not played in Europe. This image is a detail of that pattern. In the centre is the letter “A”, because it is the first letter of the word “Als” - the first word of the second chapter. The same image appears in the 1839 Krabbe edition.
