EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a thrilling scene from the Turcomans' big public celebrations in the 19th century. The image showcases two exciting competitions that were organized during these festivities: a contest of wrestling with bare hands and a race of horses. In the wrestling competition, three or four competitors engage in an intense battle of strength and skill, using nothing but their own bare hands. The determination on their faces is evident as they grapple with each other, showcasing their agility and technique to secure victory. The winner of this fierce contest is not only rewarded with a piece of cotton cloth but also earns the prestigious title of "president" for the race. The second part of this grand event features an exhilarating horse race covering a distance of one kilometer. With spectators cheering them on, riders push their steeds to their limits in pursuit of glory. The speed and power displayed by both horse and rider are truly awe-inspiring. This remarkable engraving was created to illustrate Henri de Blocqueville's enthralling story titled "14 months of captivite chez les Turcomans" published in "Le tour du monde, nouveau journal des voyages" under Edouard Charton's direction in 1866 Paris. Through this historical artwork, we get a glimpse into the vibrant traditions and competitive spirit that characterized these Turcoman celebrations so many years ago.
