EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Cabaub Shop, Cabul, 1843" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Kabul in the early 19th century. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring to life a scene filled with cultural richness and culinary delights. In this image, we see a group of young boys sitting cross-legged outside a traditional Cabaub shop. They are engrossed in their meal, enjoying the flavorsome cuisine that is being grilled right before their eyes. The aroma of spices fills the air as these children indulge in an authentic Afghan dining experience. The artist, James Atkinson, captures not only the essence of food but also the diversity of costumes and characters present on this busy street. Each figure tells its own story, representing different aspects of Middle Eastern culture and Orientalism. Charles Hague's lithograph skillfully translates Atkinson's sketches into a visual masterpiece that transports us back to this momentous era. This illustration was originally featured in "Characters & Costumes of Afghanistan" a publication by Capt Lockyer Willis Hart and Dr James Atkinson. Through this print from Bridgeman Images' Stapleton Collection, we are reminded of the power art holds in preserving history and capturing moments that would otherwise be lost to time.
