EDITORS COMMENTS
Beb-kar, or Bab Bhar, the magnificent gateway to the Marina in Tunis, Tunisia, is depicted in this exquisite 19th century handcoloured copperplate engraving. Drawn by Alessandro Sanquirico after Nanini, this illustration offers a captivating glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era of grandeur and beauty. The Beb-kar gate, with its crenellated tower and ornate decorations, stands proudly against the backdrop of the azure Mediterranean Sea. A coach road leads up to the gate, while a mast-laden ship sails in the distance, adding to the bustling maritime activity. The gate's intricate design and imposing presence served as a symbol of Tunisia's rich cultural heritage and its strategic importance as a trading hub. This illustration is taken from Giulio Ferrario's Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World, published in Florence in 1834. The meticulously handcoloured copperplate engraving showcases the artistic skill and attention to detail that was characteristic of European travelogues and ethnographic studies of the period. The image offers a unique perspective on the architecture, fashion, and daily life of Tunisia during the 19th century, making it an invaluable historical record and a beautiful work of art in its own right.
