EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of Muslim prayers, beautifully engraved by E. Ronjat. The engraving was created to illustrate the book "La Syria d aujourd hui" by M. Lortet, who was the dean of the Faculty of Medicine in Lyon and had been entrusted with a scientific mission by the Ministry of Public Education. Published in 1881 in Paris as part of the renowned magazine Tour du monde, under the direction of Edouard Charton, this artwork is now part of the Selva Collection. The image showcases a scene from Arab civilization, depicting religious ecstasy and devotion within Islamic rituals. It offers a glimpse into Middle Eastern culture during that era, highlighting both the spiritual significance and cultural richness associated with Muslim prayers. Elegantly composed and expertly executed, this engraving serves as a historical testament to religious practices in Syria at that time. Through its intricate details and masterful portrayal, it invites viewers to reflect on faith's role in shaping societies across different regions. As we admire this remarkable piece from Leonard de Selva's private collection today, we are reminded not only of its artistic value but also its contribution to our understanding of history and religion.
