EDITORS COMMENTS
In this handcoloured copperplate engraving by Verico, after Giulio Ferrario, we witness a mesmerizing spectacle of the Sultan's court in the Ottoman Empire. The Sultan, dressed in regal attire, sits atop a grand kiosk, his expression a blend of amusement and approval as he watches young officers and pages engage in a martial art known as esercizio del tomac or the exercise of the djerid. The young men, mounted on horseback, are skillfully throwing tomac, which are wool balls attached to strips of leather, at their opponents. The precision and intensity of their movements are evident as they attempt to hit their targets while their opponents defend themselves with shields. The scene is reminiscent of a cavalry battle, with the clashing of spears and javelins adding to the excitement. The Sultan's kiosk is surrounded by a tented city, with musicians and a band providing an upbeat soundtrack to the proceedings. The atmosphere is festive, with the Sultan's subjects enjoying a day of entertainment and martial art. The engraving captures the essence of the Ottoman Empire's rich history and cultural traditions. This historical illustration, taken from Giulio Ferrario's Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World, published in Florence in 1842, is a testament to the beauty and intrigue of the past. The meticulous attention to detail in the engraving, from the Sultan's ornate headdress to the intricate designs on the young men's uniforms, adds to the overall allure of the image. This print offers a glimpse into the martial arts and entertainment of the Ottoman Empire, making it a valuable addition to any collection of historical fashion or Islamic art.
