EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back in time to witness a moment of discovery and intrigue. The bourgeois al-Harith, son of Hammam, is depicted as he stumbles upon a hidden message from the wandering navigator Abu-Zayd. This exquisite miniature is taken from the "Maqamat" (Seances) of Abu Mohammed al-Kasim ibn Ali Hariri, beautifully illuminated by Yahya Mahmud al-Wasiti in 1237 Paris. The scene unfolds against a backdrop of an enchanting Middle Eastern landscape. A majestic camel stands beside the bourgeois al-Harith, symbolizing his journey through life and his connection to the vast desert expanse. A solitary tree adds depth to the composition while hinting at nature's secrets waiting to be discovered. The presence of writing signifies knowledge and communication between individuals across time and space. It highlights the importance of human connection and intellectual exchange within Arab civilization during the Middle Ages. The intricate Arabic script on parchment evokes a sense of wonderment about what lies within its words. This photograph not only captures a specific historical moment but also serves as a testament to our shared human experience throughout different civilizations. It reminds us that even centuries later, we can still appreciate and learn from these artistic masterpieces that transcend time itself.
