EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print of "MS Ahmed III 3206 Solon (638-559 BC) Teaching" takes us back to the 13th century Turkish School, where a scene from Kitab Mukhtar al-Hikam wa-Mahasin al-Kilam unfolds. This illustration, created with pen and ink as well as gouache on paper, can be found in the Topkapi Palace Museum in Istanbul, Turkey. In this historical artwork, we witness an enlightening moment as Solon, the renowned Archon of Athens and esteemed Greek sage, imparts his wisdom to a group of eager students. Seated comfortably amidst them, Solon dons a turban-like headdress that adds an air of authority to his presence. Solon's teachings were not only influential in ancient Greece but also resonated within Islamic culture during that era. The Book of Selections of Wisdom and Wonderful Sayings by Abu l-Wafa al Mubashir bin Fatik draws inspiration from Solon's laws regarding usury—a topic still relevant today. This image captures the essence of education and learning—students engrossed in their studies while their teacher guides them towards enlightenment. It serves as a reminder that knowledge knows no boundaries or time constraints; it transcends generations. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Turkish history, let us appreciate the profound impact individuals like Solon had on shaping societies and inspiring future generations.
