EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Selektir Agassi, plate 7 from Collection of One Hundred Prints Representing the Different Nations of the Levant" takes us on a journey to the Ottoman Empire in the early 18th century. Created by Jean Baptiste Vanmour and engraved by Gerard Scotin, this coloured engraving showcases the rich diversity and exoticism of Eastern cultures. In this particular scene, we see an official figure dressed in a stunning oriental robe adorned with intricate patterns. The red hat atop his head signifies his high rank and authority. With a meticulously groomed mustache and an air of elegance, he exudes power and sophistication. Accompanied by his loyal attendant, who is also dressed in a uniform reflecting their status, they traverse through Istanbul's bustling streets. The attention to detail in their attire highlights the opulence that was synonymous with royal figures during this era. This print not only serves as a visual delight but also offers valuable insights into historical fashion trends and cultural exchange between nations. It provides us with a glimpse into the lives of those who served at courts or held important positions within society. As part of The Stapleton Collection housed in a private collection today, this artwork continues to captivate viewers with its exquisite beauty and timeless depiction of Orientalism.
