EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures the essence of serenity and contentment in a young Egyptian mother and her first-born baby. The Cairene mother, dressed in traditional attire, exudes an air of tranquility as she cradles her child with utmost care. Her black habbarah drapes gracefully around her, while delicate earrings adorn her ears. The scene is set against a backdrop of opulence, with an intricately designed coffee table adorned with ivory and mother-of-pearl inlays. Through the perforations of a metal vessel on the table, wisps of burning perfume escape into the room, filling it with a delightful aroma - a common local custom to scent apartments. The atmosphere is cozy and warm; the divan invites relaxation as both mother and child find comfort in each other's presence. The baby's cap sparkles with gold coins, symbolizing their birthplace and heritage. In this moment frozen in time by F. Goodall in 1862, one can almost feel the peacefulness emanating from this young family. Their expressions reflect satisfaction and joy - they are at peace amidst life's chaos. This enchanting engraving from the Liszt Collection transports us back to the Victorian era when such prints were cherished for their quintessential charm. It serves as a reminder that even amidst changing times, some things remain timeless: love between a mother and child knows no bounds; it transcends cultures and eras alike.
