EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithography print from 1890 showcases the diverse cultures and alphabets of the world. Titled "K: Kabyle -- Kalmouk" it is part of a series created by French School artist Bognard for an advertising campaign in Paris during the late 19th century. Measuring at 7.6 x 11.2 cm, this small but intricate artwork features an alphabet primer that highlights two distinct regions - North Africa and Russia. The first image depicts a Kabyle rider from Algeria, representing the rich Arab civilization found in the Maghreb region. The second image portrays a Kalmouk horseman from Russia, showcasing the cultural diversity of Asia. The vibrant colors used in this print bring life to both figures and their surroundings, capturing attention with their vividness. The detailed illustrations beautifully capture each man's masculine presence as they sit atop their horses, symbolizing strength and power. Through this artwork, Bognard not only promotes his printing business but also celebrates different cultures across continents. This piece serves as a visual reminder of how art can bridge geographical gaps and foster appreciation for global diversity. Now preserved in a private collection, this print provides us with a glimpse into the artistic techniques and advertising strategies employed during France's Belle Époque era while reminding us of our shared humanity across borders and time periods.
