EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Muslim woman and her young daughter from Sousse, Tunisia. The image is taken from the book "Tunis et ses environs" by Charles Lallemand, published in 1890 in Paris Quentin. The photograph, captured by French School artist Leonard de Selva, beautifully captures the essence of North African culture. The veiled woman stands gracefully beside her daughter, both adorned in traditional Tunisian costumes. Their attire reflects their strong connection to their Muslim religion and Islamic traditions. This intimate portrayal highlights the importance of family and childhood within the context of Islam. The girl's innocent gaze towards her mother exudes warmth and love as they stand together against a backdrop that represents Arab civilization. The engraving perfectly encapsulates the rich cultural heritage found in this region of the world. As we admire this remarkable piece of art, it serves as a reminder of the diverse beauty found within different religious practices and how they shape our identities. It invites us to appreciate the significance of faith and its influence on individuals' lives. Leonard de Selva's skillful photography transports us back to 19th-century Tunisia while also reminding us that these timeless themes continue to resonate with people today. This print is not just an artistic masterpiece but also an important historical document showcasing a slice of life during that era.
