EDITORS COMMENTS
This Catalogue illustration showcases a collection of exquisite donations from the late 1890s, sourced from various patrons during post-war fundraising efforts. The illustration includes three notable items: a Sevres ornament depicting dogs hunting a stag, donated by President Felix Faure of France; an ornate vase, graciously given by Abdulrahman Nurettin Pasha, Minister of Justice; and a long chibouk (Turkish tobacco pipe) in tortoiseshell, decorated with enamel, donated by Princess Fatma Hanoum, the esteemed daughter of the former Khedive of Egypt and Sudan, Ismail Pasha. The Sevres ornament, with its intricate design of hunting dogs in pursuit of a stag, is a testament to the opulence of the Ottoman Empire during the late 19th century. The vase, adorned with intricate Arabic calligraphy and ornate gold detailing, reflects the fusion of Eastern and Western artistic influences that characterized the period. The long chibouk, a symbol of Turkish hospitality, is a beautiful example of the craftsmanship and artistic prowess of the time. These donations were likely displayed in an illustrated catalogue for a bazaar or aid event, where wounded soldiers and their families could gather to receive support and assistance. The collection serves as a reminder of the generosity and patronage that emerged from the Middle Eastern and Eastern European communities during a time of war and hardship. The chromolithograph, a popular method for producing detailed and vibrant illustrations during the late 1800s, captures the essence of each item and the historical significance of their donation.
