EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite costume of a man from the coast of Syria during the 18th century. The attention to detail in this handcoloured copperplate engraving by Octavian Dalvimart is truly remarkable. The man depicted in the image wears a striking turban, symbolizing his cultural identity and status. A blue cloak gracefully drapes over his shoulder, adding an air of elegance to his ensemble. His brown tunic complements the overall color palette, while blue trousers and vibrant red slippers complete his attire. This depiction offers us a glimpse into the fashion and style prevalent in Syria during that era. It serves as a testament to the rich diversity and artistic heritage of this region. The translation of Picturesque Representations of the Dress and Manners of Turks by William Alexander provides valuable insight into not only Syrian culture but also Turkish customs during this time period. This work allows viewers to travel back in time and immerse themselves in the Regency era's fashion trends within both Turkey and Ottoman Empire. Through this photo print, we can appreciate how clothing played an integral role in expressing one's identity within Islamic society at that time. It stands as a visual reminder of historical traditions, showcasing both beauty and craftsmanship for all admirers of art, history, and culture alike.
