EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolour print by Giulio Rosati showcases a scene of Arabs engrossed in a game of Backgammon within the confines of an interior space. The composition exudes an air of tranquility and camaraderie as the men, seated on cushions, concentrate intently on their moves. The richly decorated walls and intricate wall hangings create a visually stimulating backdrop for this leisurely pastime. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of the painting, from the carefully rendered facial expressions to the meticulously depicted traditional costumes worn by each player. The playfulness and friendly rivalry among them are captured through subtle hand gestures and postures. Rosati's work falls under the genre of orientalism, popular during the late 19th century European art movement. It offers viewers a glimpse into Middle Eastern culture and traditions while showcasing his mastery in capturing human interaction and emotion. This exquisite piece invites us to step into another time, immersing ourselves in this momentary respite from daily life. As we observe these men engaged in their recreation, we cannot help but appreciate both the artistic skill behind this watercolour masterpiece and its ability to transport us to distant lands where games like Backgammon serve as bridges between cultures.
