"The Last Caliph: After the establishment of the republic in Turkey by Mustafa Kemal, the Caliph, like the Sultan, received notification of his discheance by the assembly of Angora and went to exile in France with the princes and princesses of his family in March 1924. Engraving. One of the journal 'Le Petite Journal illustrious', 1924. Private collection". This engraving captures a significant moment in Turkish history as it depicts the last Caliph's departure from Turkey after being dethroned following Mustafa Kemal's establishment of a republic. The image portrays an air of melancholy and resignation as we witness this historic figure leaving behind his homeland. The composition showcases a group consisting of both princes and princesses accompanying their exiled leader into an uncertain future. Their expressions reveal mixed emotions - sadness for leaving their beloved country but also hope for what lies ahead. The artist skillfully conveys these complex emotions through intricate details such as facial expressions and body language. The use of shading adds depth to each character, emphasizing their individuality while also highlighting their collective fate. As viewers, we are transported back to that tumultuous period in early 20th-century Turkey when political upheaval reshaped society. This engraving serves as a poignant reminder not only of historical events but also the human stories behind them. Preserved within a private collection, this artwork stands as a testament to its enduring significance and offers us an opportunity to reflect on how past decisions continue to shape our present reality.
