EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting landscapes of 19th century Turkey. Captured by Elisee Reclus, a renowned geographer and writer, it showcases the breathtaking beauty of Lake Van, Tadwan Bay, and Mount Nimrud. Published in "The Universal Geography with Illustrations and Maps" by Virtue & Co. Limited in London in 1895, this engraving transports us to a time when Asia Minor was still known as Anatolia. In this monochrome masterpiece, we see a tranquil countryside scene where an abandoned sailboat peacefully glides across the crystal-clear waters of Lake Van. The majestic mountains surrounding Tadwan Bay provide a stunning backdrop that adds depth and grandeur to the composition. As we immerse ourselves in this image from over a century ago, we can almost feel the gentle breeze on our faces and hear the soothing sound of water splashing against the boat's hull. It reminds us of simpler times when transportation relied on such graceful vessels for travel through these picturesque terrains. This remarkable print is not only a testament to Reclus' artistic eye but also serves as an invaluable historical document capturing Turkey's natural wonders during its rich cultural heritage. It allows us to appreciate both the timeless beauty of nature and humanity's enduring fascination with exploration and discovery.
