EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of an Armenian cafe, a haven of masculine camaraderie where men gather to enjoy coffee and indulge in the pleasures of smoking pipes. The engraving, based on a drawing by Theophile Deyrolles during his journey through Lazistan and Armenia in 1869, offers a glimpse into the daily life and customs of this vibrant culture. The scene depicts a group of men engaged in lively conversation, their faces illuminated by the warm glow of friendship. They sit around small tables adorned with cups of steaming coffee and pipes emitting fragrant smoke. This image transports us to a time when cafes were not just places for refreshment but also served as social hubs where ideas were exchanged, stories shared, and bonds forged. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke; from the intricate patterns adorning traditional Armenian attire to the expressions etched upon each face. It is clear that this space holds great significance for these men - it is more than just a place to satisfy their cravings; it is a sanctuary where they can revel in their virility while immersing themselves in deep conversations that shape their community. This remarkable print from Leonard de Selva's collection allows us to witness an intimate moment frozen in time - an invitation to step into the world of Armenian cafe culture and experience firsthand its unique blend of conviviality, tradition, and indulgence.
