EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Rigep Dandulo" takes us back in time to the 17th century. The portrait depicts a remarkable individual named Rigep Dandulo, who was baptized around 1658. Originally hailing from Turkey, Dandulo's life took an unexpected turn when he converted to Protestantism. The artist behind this exquisite piece is Thomas Cross, a British engraver active between 1644 and 1682. Cross beautifully captures the essence of Dandulo through his meticulous attention to detail. The half-length portrait showcases the subject's striking features - his intense gaze, prominent turban atop his head, and a well-groomed mustache that adds an air of sophistication. Dressed in traditional Turkish attire, Dandulo's costume speaks volumes about his cultural background while simultaneously highlighting his newfound faith as a Christian convert. This juxtaposition serves as a powerful reminder of the complex interplay between religion and identity during this era. As we delve into this historical artwork, it prompts us to reflect on themes such as religious conversion and multiculturalism. It invites us to ponder questions about personal beliefs and how they shape our lives. This print is part of a private collection but has been made available for public viewing by www. bridgemanart. com. Its timeless beauty continues to captivate viewers today just as it did centuries ago when Rigep Dandulo first embraced Christianity against all odds.
