EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving depicts a traditional Ottoman sport known as Jereed, a centuries-old equestrian game that has been an integral part of Turkish culture since the times of the Turkic States. The scene unfolds in Anatolia, the historical heartland of Turkey, and is beautifully captured by the skilled hands of prominent 19th-century European engravers H. Lemaitre, H. Lalaisse, and Jules Van Gaver. In the image, we see a group of Ottoman horsemen, dressed in their ceremonial costumes, engaging in the game. The riders, adorned with ornate turbans and other traditional attire, ride horseback and hurl javelins at targets set up in the distance. Spectators, dressed in their finest clothing, look on in admiration and excitement. Jereed, also known as Jerid or Jerrid, is a game that requires skill, precision, and horsemanship. It is believed to have originated during the Seljuk and Ottoman periods and has remained a cherished tradition among the Turkish people. The game is thought to have been used as a means of training soldiers in the art of horseback archery and javelin throwing. This engraving, taken from the comprehensive work "Historia de Turquia" by Joseph Marie Jouannin and Jules Van Gaver, provides a fascinating glimpse into the rich history and cultural traditions of the Ottoman Empire. The intricate details of the costumes, the dynamic poses of the riders, and the engaged expressions of the spectators all contribute to a captivating and evocative image that transports us back in time.
