Embarkment: A Timeless Tradition of Departure and Beginnings - From the Sultan's Harem in Istanbul's Mosque of Sultan Mahmud II, to the Roman Queen's Oil-Soaked Voyage, the Princely Procession in Venice, the Regal Sail from Naples, the Camel Caravan in Morocco, the Naval Crew's Preparation in Southampton, and the Holy Family's Flight to Egypt - a universal theme, captured through the ages in art and history. Each piece tells a story of departure, of leaving behind the familiar and setting sail into the unknown. Whether it's a queen embarking on a new journey, a prince crossing a bridge, a king setting sail from his homeland, or a family fleeing to safety, the act holds a sense of adventure, anticipation, and the promise of new experiences. From the banks of the Bosphorus to the shores of the Mediterranean, the embarkment continues to inspire artists and historians alike, leaving us with a rich and diverse legacy of human experience.
