EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, taken from Francois Pouqueville's "Travels through More, Albania and several other parts of the Ottoman Empire," published in Milan between 1815 and 1817, depicts a lively scene of Turks dancing on the idyllic island of Prinkipo, also known as Buyukada, located in the Sea of Marmara near the historic city of Constantinople, now Istanbul, Turkey. The copperplate engraving, hand-colored by Lazaretti, beautifully captures the joyous spirit of the dance as Turks clap, twirl, and leap in unison. The island's lush greenery, crystal-clear waters, and picturesque stone houses serve as a serene backdrop to this vibrant display of cultural expression. Prinkipo was a popular retreat for the Ottoman elite, and this image offers a glimpse into the leisurely pursuits and rich traditions of the Ottoman society during the early 19th century. The intricate details of the dancers' colorful costumes, the delicate shades of the hand-coloring, and the overall composition of the engraving make this a truly enchanting and evocative representation of a bygone era.
