EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Chatir, plate 28 from Collection of One Hundred Prints Representing the Different Nations of the Levant" takes us on a visual journey to the Ottoman Empire in the early 18th century. Created by Jean Baptiste Vanmour and engraved by Gerard Scotin, this coloured engraving showcases the rich cultural diversity and intricate costumes of the Levantine nations. In this particular scene, we are introduced to an Emperor's foot page - a male servant dressed in traditional oriental robes and adorned with exotic accessories. His uniform is meticulously detailed, featuring an imperial belt and a turban that adds an air of regality to his appearance. The sharp dagger at his side hints at both his loyalty and readiness for protection. The artist skillfully captures not only the attire but also the essence of this attendant's role. He stands tall with pride, embodying gracefulness as he attends to his duties within the imperial court. The vibrant colors used in this print further enhance its allure, transporting us back in time to witness a moment frozen forever through art. This exquisite piece from Charles de Ferriol's collection offers us a glimpse into Eastern fashion during that era while showcasing Vanmour's talent for capturing cultural nuances through illustration. It serves as a testament to how art can transcend time and space, allowing us to appreciate different cultures throughout history.
