EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "A woman of Brussa, Turkey, 1895" transports us back to the enchanting landscapes of Asia in the late 19th century. The artist behind this mesmerizing portrait is Henri Thiriat, who skillfully captures the essence of a Turkish woman from Brussa (now known as Bursa). Cloaked in traditional garments and adorned with an intricately wrapped shawl around her head, this Asian lady exudes grace and elegance. Her face remains concealed beneath a headdress or headscarf, symbolizing the religious customs prevalent during that era. As a Muslim woman living in a predominantly Islamic country like Turkey, she adheres to modesty through her attire. The photograph was originally published as part of "The Universal Geography with Illustrations and Maps" by Elisee Reclus under Virtue & Co. Ltd. , London in 1895. This publication aimed to provide readers with comprehensive knowledge about various countries worldwide. Through this monochrome engraving, we catch a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Anatolia's Marmara region. It serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical documentation that allows us to appreciate the diversity within different societies. As we admire this remarkable portrayal captured over a century ago by Henri Thiriat, let us acknowledge its significance in preserving our collective history while celebrating the beauty found across continents and among people from all walks of life.
