EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a vibrant scene titled "Fete champetre with Turkish Courtiers under a Tent" painted by Jean Baptiste Vanmour between 1720 and 1737. The oil on canvas artwork, measuring 51.5x90 cm, is housed in the prestigious Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands. The painting depicts an unconventional gathering of courtiers indulging in pleasure and leisure amidst the picturesque countryside. The artist presents an orientalist theme, showcasing elements of Turkish culture such as music, smoking hookahs, and enjoying food and drink under a tent. Vanmour's work offers a licentious image of these courtiers engaging in decadent behavior. Men and women can be seen mingling freely, defying societal norms of the time. This wanton display challenges traditional conventions while celebrating the beauty of diversity. The setting transports viewers to Constantinople (now Istanbul), where Ottoman influences are evident throughout the composition. The atmosphere is filled with joyous revelry as people dine together, savoring delicious meals and beverages. Through this painting, Vanmour invites us to explore the pleasures found beyond conventional boundaries. It serves as a testament to his skillful portrayal of both human interaction and exotic landscapes—a true masterpiece that continues to captivate audiences today.
