Streszczenie: | This article treats about the analysis of clothing color as a possible distinguishing feature at the territorial level and about a specific point in the history of Colombia, which serves as the main tool to identify cultural and social groups represented in Colombian clothing in the period from 1810 to 1820. This analysis makes part of the ongoing investigation “Recognizing our heritage - Clothing during the Ruta Libertadora”; which aims to document and identify the elements of fashion design such as structure, shape, color and other visual and technical features that allow us to establish our own discourse regarding clothing, textile design and its own trend of time and region.
As a methodological process, a compilation of visual information obtained through cartographic sources and clothing illustrations was carried out, which were pertinent and corresponded to the main protagonists of the liberating feat. For this, a classification of images is carried out, which includes characters from the patriot and realist armies, as well as mestizo and creole people.
This systematic study allows us to reconstruct with data everything related to the wardrobe of that period in Boyacá. Specifically, and with regard to this article, color is taken in a case study as a fundamental resource of visual semiotics, in order to understand the color code and its relationship with the 6 fundamental axes proposed by Bernd Löbach (1981), about the functions of products and their relationship with man and object: aesthetic, functional, social, sensorial, formal and effects. This approach manage to show the influence of the French, English and Spanish costumes at that moment in history, and how it builds the preferences of social groups and their activities.
With the results obtained from this research, the aim is to establish a series of guidelines for a future project that allows us to understand the chromatic phenomenon in the universe of clothing linked to the customs of the time, in order to contribute to the memory of the history of the region and the design. |
