EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Predicting the future from reading coffee grounds" takes us on a journey into the mystical world of fortune-telling. Engraved by Charles William Sharpe and based on an original work by Nicholas Joseph Crowley, this artwork transports us to a time when gypsies and superstitions held great power. Intriguingly, we find ourselves in the presence of a young female fortune teller, her gaze fixed upon the coffee cup before her. With an air of wisdom beyond her years, she delicately reads the patterns left behind in the dregs as if deciphering secrets written by fate itself. Her decollete dress and headdress add an exotic touch to her enigmatic persona. Surrounded by symbols of divination - a sugar bowl, saucer, pot - this old café becomes a sanctuary where destinies are unveiled. The elderly woman's scarf drapes gracefully around her shoulders while her hairstyle exudes timeless elegance. Her turban completes this mesmerizing portrait that captures both vulnerability and strength. As we observe this scene frozen in time at Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, France, we cannot help but wonder about our own futures. This image reminds us of humanity's enduring fascination with what lies ahead and our desire for guidance amidst uncertainty. Through its intricate details and masterful engraving technique, this print invites us to embrace our curiosity about destiny while acknowledging the rich tapestry of traditions that have shaped human
