EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Berak" the flag of Emir Ibn Al Rashid, who ruled Saudi Arabia from 1872 to 1890. Engraved by G. Vuillier, this image was originally featured in Lady Anna Blunt's story titled "Pelerinage au Nedjed, Cradle of the Arab Race" published in 1882 as part of the Tour du Monde magazine under Edouard Charton's direction. The flag itself is a symbol of power and authority, representing the reign of Emir Ibn Al Rashid during a crucial period in Saudi Arabian history. The intricate details captured through Vuillier's engraving highlight the significance and grandeur associated with this emblem. In addition to showcasing the flag, this print also includes an enchanting depiction of a camel—a quintessential animal synonymous with Arabian culture and heritage. This inclusion further emphasizes the connection between Emir Ibn Al Rashid's rule and his kingdom. As we gaze upon this historical artifact from Leonard de Selva's collection, we are transported back to a time when Arab civilization flourished in the Middle East. Through its monochromatic charm and attention to detail, this photograph serves as a window into an era that shaped Saudi Arabia's rich cultural tapestry.
