EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Tunis. A Gateway of the East, c1913" takes us back in time to early 20th century Tunisia. The artist behind this masterpiece is Charles JS Makin, who skillfully captured the essence of this North African country through his lens. The image showcases a stunning architectural feature - an archway that serves as a gateway to the cityscape beyond. Standing tall and majestic, it symbolizes the rich history and cultural heritage of Tunis. Through its columns and pillars, we catch a glimpse of a bustling vista filled with people going about their daily lives. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see three individuals - a woman, man, and child - standing near the archway. Their presence adds depth to the composition and evokes curiosity about their story within this vibrant city. Makin's work not only captures the physical beauty of Tunisia but also provides us with an insight into its literary traditions. This particular print comes from his book "With Pen and Camera in Three Continents" published by The Tribune Publishing Company in London in 1913. As we gaze upon this monochrome scene, we are transported to another era where artistry met storytelling through photography. It reminds us of how images can transcend time and connect us with cultures long gone but still alive within our collective memory.
