The Question of the Retention of Cyprus, Sketches in the Island
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving by Frederic de Haenen that offers a glimpse into the diverse and intriguing world of Cyprus in 1895. This print, part of a private collection, showcases street scenes and native types, providing an immersive experience for viewers. In this artwork, we are transported to Larnaca, where traditional dress and local customs abound. The artist skillfully captures the essence of the island's vibrant culture through his detailed sketches. From guards patrolling the streets to convicts serving their time in wine cellars, every scene tells a story. The title itself hints at an underlying political debate surrounding Cyprus during this period. As Europe grappled with questions about its retention and control over various territories, Haenen's work sheds light on how these discussions impacted everyday life on the island. This engraving not only serves as a historical document but also invites us to reflect on broader themes such as identity and power dynamics within Europe. It reminds us that even small islands like Cyprus played significant roles in shaping European history. Bridgeman Images has once again provided us with access to an extraordinary piece from their Fine Art Finder collection. Through "The Question of the Retention of Cyprus" we can explore both past events and timeless human experiences captured by talented artists like Frederic de Haenen.
