EDITORS COMMENTS
Auguste Raffet's captivating lithograph, "Traveling Tartar Family, Near Yalta, Crimea, August 15, 1837," transports us back in time to the 19th century and the picturesque hills of Crimea. The scene unfolds with a group of Tartar travelers, a nomadic people of Islamic faith, making their way through the rugged terrain on horseback. The women, dressed in traditional burkas or burqas, cover their faces and bodies, while the men wear simple clothing and ride their horses with ease. The lithograph, created by Denis Auguste Marie Raffet in 1840, is a stunning example of the artist's ability to capture the essence of a moment in time. The image, created using the lithotint process, showcases the intricate details of the Tartar family's clothing, the textures of the horses and their harnesses, and the rolling hills and trees in the background. Raffet, a French artist, was known for his skill in depicting people and scenes from various cultures and religions, including Islamic and Muslim communities. This lithograph is a testament to his artistic talent and his ability to capture the beauty and diversity of the world around him. The image has been preserved in the collections of the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences. It serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of the past and the importance of preserving and celebrating the diversity of human experiences.
