EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the 17th century, immersing us in the world of coffee culture. The image showcases an exquisite illustration from "Traite Nouveau et Curieux du Cafe, du The et du Chocolat" by Philippe Sylvestre Dufour, published in 1693. In this scene, we witness a man dressed in traditional oriental costume sitting cross-legged on the floor. He holds a beautifully crafted pot for making coffee with intricate details that reflect the artistry of the era. Surrounding him are various elements related to coffee production and consumption – a bowl filled with beans, leaves from the coffee plant, and an instrument used for roasting coffee. The composition exudes a sense of tranquility as our protagonist enjoys his cup of Turkish-style coffee while wearing a turban atop his head. This depiction transports us to another time and place where savoring this beloved beverage was not just an act but rather an experience steeped in tradition and ritual. Preserved within the archives of Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, this engraving captures both historical significance and artistic beauty. It serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, people found solace and pleasure in indulging themselves with their favorite drink – one that continues to bring joy today across cultures worldwide.
