EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a set of exquisite 19th-century chess pieces created by the Islamic School. The craftsmanship and attention to detail are truly remarkable, making this artwork a true testament to the skill of its creators. The focal point of the composition is undoubtedly the Queen piece, which has been masterfully modeled as an elegant elephant. Its majestic presence commands attention and adds a touch of regality to the entire set. Adorned with diamonds and rubies, this queen exudes opulence and luxury. Accompanying the magnificent elephant queen are two smaller pieces that complement it perfectly. These intricately designed chessmen feature delicate enameling with beautiful flowers adorning their bases and sides. The undersides of these smaller pieces boast red flowers on a striking blue background, adding depth and vibrancy to their overall appearance. Through this photograph, we can appreciate not only the artistic value but also the historical significance of these chess pieces.
