EDITORS COMMENTS
This study sheet, created by the renowned French artist Auguste Raffet between 1814 and 1860, showcases a group of people at Derekoy in Turkey. The scene features a seated woman dressed in traditional Turkish attire, with her arms wrapped protectively around two young children. The woman's intricately patterned dress and headscarf are adorned with vibrant colors and rich textures, reflecting the unique cultural heritage of the region. Two boys, also dressed in traditional Turkish clothing, sit on either side of the woman, one kneeling and the other standing. Their posture and expression convey a sense of curiosity and playfulness. The artist's skillful use of pencil and watercolor paint brings the scene to life, capturing the details of the clothing and the expressions of the subjects. The study sheet is an unfinished work, providing a glimpse into the artist's creative process. It is believed that Raffet, who was known for his detailed and accurate depictions of people and places, traveled extensively throughout Europe and the Middle East to gather inspiration for his art. This study sheet is a testament to his ability to capture the essence of a moment and the beauty of traditional costumes. The Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands, is the current home of this precious work of art. It serves as a reminder of the rich cultural history and artistic traditions that have shaped Europe and the world.
