EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Kurds of Petchara (Turkey)" takes us back to the year 1892, when it was engraved by Barbant to illustrate Madame B. Chantre's story in Le tour du Monde magazine. The engraving is a part of a private collection and showcases the traditional costumes worn by the Kurdish people. In this portrait, we see a Turkish Kurdish family proudly displaying their rich cultural heritage. Each member is dressed in intricately designed garments that reflect their traditions and customs. The attention to detail in the engraving allows us to appreciate the beauty of their attire. The image transports us to a time when Turkey's Kurdistan region was still known as Petchara. It offers a glimpse into the lives of these proud Kurds who have preserved their unique identity throughout history. The photographer, Leonard de Selva, has skillfully captured not only the physical appearance but also the spirit of this family. Their expressions convey resilience and strength, perhaps reflecting their experiences living amidst challenging circumstances. As we admire this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder, we are reminded of how art can serve as a window into different cultures and histories. This print serves as an important historical document that sheds light on both Turkish and Kurdish traditions during that era.
