EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this black and white portrait print titled "The Hooka-Badar" created by C Cousen and inspired by the renowned artist Sir David Wilkie, we are transported back to the enigmatic world of the early 19th century. The image depicts a solitary male figure sitting indoors, his piercing gaze fixed upon us with an air of suspicion. Dressed in traditional attire, adorned with a magnificent headdress and turban, the bearded man exudes an aura of mystery. With one hand delicately holding a hookah pipe emitting wisps of smoke, he invites us to ponder over his thoughts hidden behind that inscrutable expression. The monochrome engraving skillfully captures every intricate detail - from the texture of his beard to the folds in his headgear - adding depth and intensity to this intriguing portrayal. As we delve deeper into this artwork, it becomes evident that there is more than meets the eye; perhaps secrets lie within those billowing clouds of smoke or concealed beneath that imposing exterior. Cousen's masterful execution transports us back in time, immersing us in an era where distrust was palpable. Through this evocative piece, we are reminded of how art can capture not only physical appearances but also emotions and concepts such as suspicion and intrigue. "The Hooka-Badar" serves as a testament to both Cousen's artistic prowess and Sir David
