EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us to the bustling streets of Cairo, Egypt. The image showcases a mesmerizing scene within the courtyard of an old house. At its entrance, we witness a veiled mother engrossed in conversation with a man who sits atop his majestic horse. Their animated exchange seems to captivate both young and old, as children gather around to observe this intriguing encounter. The artist behind this remarkable piece is Willem de Famars Testas, whose work spans between 1868 and 1881. Using canvas and oil paint, Testas masterfully captures the essence of daily life in Cairo during that era. The dimensions of this artwork measure 84 cm in height by 62 cm in width and are further enhanced by a depth of 11 cm. As we delve into this snapshot frozen in time, it becomes evident that there is more than meets the eye within these ancient walls. The juxtaposition of traditional attire against the backdrop of architectural grandeur creates an atmosphere rich with cultural significance and historical context. This print serves as a testament to Testas' ability to transport viewers through time and space, allowing us to immerse ourselves fully into the vibrant world he has recreated on canvas. It invites contemplation about life's many narratives unfolding simultaneously within hidden corners like this one throughout history-rich cities such as Cairo.
