EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment during the French Expedition to Tunisia in 1881. In the image, we see the sheiks of the Kroumir tribe of Selloul making their way towards the camp of Sidi Youssef to submit their submission to General Gerder. The engraving, skillfully created by Samuel Urabbieta and featured in "The Illustrous World" publication on May 28th, 1881, beautifully portrays this historical event. The scene is filled with intrigue as these tribal leaders approach with a sense of reverence and respect for General Gerder. Their traditional attire and proud demeanor showcase their rich cultural heritage. This encounter symbolizes an important moment in Tunisian history when colonial powers sought control over North Africa. Stefano Bianchetti's expert reproduction allows us to appreciate every intricate detail captured in this engraving. The contrast between light and shadow adds depth to the composition, emphasizing both the solemnity of the occasion and the resilience of these African tribes. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from our private collection, we are transported back to a time when nations vied for dominance across continents. It serves as a reminder that history is not only shaped by political maneuvers but also by encounters between diverse cultures.
