EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing a group of Arab bedouins on their journey to Baghdad. The image captures the essence of Middle Eastern culture and commerce during that era. The bedouins, adorned in traditional attire, are seen carrying panther skins and bundles of sheep wool as they make their way through the rugged terrain. Their faces tell stories of resilience and determination, reflecting the challenges they faced along this arduous march. The engraving was created by Guillaume Lejean for "Le tour du monde" a renowned journal of voyages edited by Edouard Charton in Paris. It offers a glimpse into an exotic world that was largely unknown to Western audiences at the time. The Selva Collection has preserved this remarkable piece of art, allowing us to appreciate its historical significance today. Leonard de Selva's expert photography brings out every intricate detail, capturing not only the landscape but also the texture of fur worn by these merchants. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen forever – an emblematic representation of Arab civilization and trade routes that shaped history. This photograph serves as a testament to our shared human heritage and reminds us of the rich cultural tapestry woven throughout different regions around the globe.
