EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Bilesikdj, an Armenian - Plate XXXV" takes us back in time to the early 19th century. Engraved by Lemercier and illustrated by Louis Dupre, this piece is a part of the renowned Voyage A AthAnes et a A Constantinople collection from 1828. The image showcases a distinguished Armenian man seated gracefully, draped in traditional robes that exude elegance and cultural richness. His long beard and mustache add an air of wisdom and maturity to his countenance. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the intricate depiction of his turban, which symbolizes his heritage within the Ottoman Empire. As we gaze upon this portrait, we are transported into an era where travel was not as accessible as it is today. This work serves as a window into the world of orientalism during that period, offering glimpses into different cultures through art. The colors used in this lithograph bring life to every fold of fabric and every strand of hair on Bilesikdj's face. It reminds us that even though centuries have passed since its creation, art has the power to preserve history and ignite our imagination. Displayed proudly in a private collection belonging to The Stapleton Collection, this print captures both beauty and historical significance. It serves as a testament to the talent of artists like Dupre who sought to document diverse cultures through their artwork for generations to come.
