EDITORS COMMENTS
In this hand-colored copperplate engraving by Verico, from Giulio Ferrario's "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World," Muslim women are depicted entertaining themselves in their private quarters. The image, taken from Ignace Mouradgea d'Ohsson's "Tableau General de L'Empire Ottoman," published in Paris in 1790, offers a glimpse into the leisurely activities of Ottoman women. At the center of the scene, a woman sits cross-legged on a plush divan, her hands deftly manipulating a hookah pipe. The smoke from the pipe curls up towards the ceiling, mingling with the warm, inviting light that filters in through the room's large windows. Nearby, another woman spins yarn, her fingers moving nimbly as she creates a new thread. A third woman embroideres intricate patterns onto a piece of fabric, her brow furrowed in concentration. In the background, a male figure strums a tanbur, a long-necked lute commonly used in Ottoman music. Two dancers, a man and a woman, perform a lively dance, their feet tapping out a rhythm on the floor as they move in perfect harmony. The woman wears a flowing, colorful dress, her arms raised above her head, while the man, dressed in a long, flowing robe, twirls a set of castanets in his hands. This enchanting scene offers a glimpse into the rich cultural traditions of the Ottoman Empire, a time when private moments of leisure and entertainment were cherished and celebrated. The intricate details of the women's clothing and the elegant furnishings of their quarters add to the overall sense of beauty and refinement, making this a truly captivating and historically significant image.
