EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Wife of a French merchant going to the baths" takes us on a journey back in time to the vibrant streets of Istanbul. Created by Jean Baptiste Vanmour and engraved by Philippe Simonneau in 1707-08, this coloured engraving showcases the exquisite artistry and attention to detail that was characteristic of its era. The image depicts a veiled woman elegantly dressed in oriental robes, accompanied by her servant or maid. The intricate patterns and rich colors of their attire reflect the exotic allure of Eastern fashion during this period. As they make their way through bustling streets, one can almost feel the energy and excitement surrounding them. This print is part of Charles de Ferriol's Collection of One Hundred Prints Representing the Different Nations of the Levant. De Ferriol, who served as Louis XIV's ambassador to the Ottoman Empire, sought to document and celebrate various cultures encountered during his diplomatic mission. Through this artwork, we are transported into a world where East meets West—a fusion captured beautifully by Vanmour's skilled hand. It serves as a reminder that art has long been an avenue for cultural exchange and appreciation. Now preserved within a private collection, this print continues to captivate viewers with its timeless beauty and historical significance. Its presence reminds us not only of our shared humanity but also our fascination with distant lands and diverse traditions.
