EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 19th century in Tunisia, offering a glimpse into the Saturday evening of a Jewish family in Tunis. The engraving by Castelli, featured in the "Journal des Voyages" in 1884, beautifully captures the essence of tradition and culture during that time. In this scene, we witness a harmonious gathering where music fills the air. A young girl sits attentively as she listens to a musician playing an African musical instrument. Their melodies resonate with deep meaning and evoke emotions within each member of this close-knit family. The image showcases not only the rich cultural heritage of North Africa but also highlights the importance of religious customs within Jewish communities. It is evident that religion plays a significant role in shaping their lives and fostering unity among them. Stefano Bianchetti's masterful preservation of this historical moment allows us to appreciate both the diversity and interconnectedness present within Tunisian society at that time. Through his lens, we are transported to an era where traditions were cherished, families gathered together, and music served as a bridge between generations. As we admire this remarkable piece from Stefano Bianchetti's private collection today, let it serve as a reminder of our shared humanity across different cultures and religions throughout history.
