"Makin: A Journey Through Time and Artistic Expression" Step into the world of Charles JS Makin, an artist whose works captured the essence of various cultures and landscapes. From "The Sunset Prayer in the Desert" to "Date Picking at Gabes, " Makin's paintings transport us to distant lands, evoking a sense of awe and wonder. In London's Collins Music Hall, a poster bearing Makin's name invites us to experience his artistry firsthand. But it doesn't end there – Philip Makin, Phillip Makin, Peter Makin – names that echo with artistic prowess or perhaps mere coincidence? The connection remains elusive. Venturing beyond canvases, we encounter the Lime-Juice Parade of the 33rd Punjab Infantry in Waziristan. An engraving immortalizes this historic event where soldiers march proudly through the streets of Makin. It serves as a reminder of bravery and sacrifice. Makin's brush strokes take us further still – Kairouan reveals its secrets within the Grande Mosque while Carthage unveils its ancient Amphitheatre. Tunis beckons with its Gateway of the East, offering glimpses into a culture steeped in history and tradition. But it is not just grand structures that captivate our attention; it is also people who inhabit these worlds. A group of Druse Ladies stand united in their beauty and strength while sharing a meal offers insight into their customs and traditions. Through his artistry, Charles JS Makin allows us to immerse ourselves in diverse landscapes, cultures, and moments frozen in time. His work transcends boundaries – both geographical and temporal – reminding us that art has no limits when it comes to capturing humanity's rich tapestry.
