EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating lithograph print, titled "Robinson Crusoe: We sell our spice to Persian merchants" transports us back to the early 20th century. Created by Joseph Finnemore, this illustration is part of an unidentified edition of Daniel Defoe's iconic novel, Robinson Crusoe. The scene depicted in the print showcases a pivotal moment in the story where Crusoe and his companions engage in trade with Persian merchants. The colors used in this litho are rich and vivid, bringing life to the bustling marketplace. The intricate details capture the essence of Persia, with its exotic spices filling the air and colorful fabrics adorning stalls. Finnemore skillfully portrays Crusoe as a resilient character who has adapted to his surroundings after being shipwrecked on a deserted island. This fictional hero becomes even more remarkable when we consider that he was created by Defoe over two centuries ago. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of the power of literature to transport us across time and space. It serves as a testament to both Defoe's enduring storytelling prowess and Finnemore's artistic talent. This lithograph print not only celebrates Robinson Crusoe as a wonderful character but also pays homage to Middle Eastern culture through its portrayal of Persia. It invites us into a world filled with adventure, mystery, and cultural exchange – reminding us that art has no boundaries when it comes to capturing our imagination.
