EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a Turkish woman engrossed in her embroidery frame. The image transports us to a bygone era, where traditional needlework was not only an art form but also a way of life. The Turkish woman sits gracefully on the floor, surrounded by vibrant threads and delicate fabrics. Her focused gaze reveals her dedication and passion for her craft. With skilled hands, she meticulously weaves intricate patterns onto the canvas before her. The embroidery frame itself is a work of art, adorned with ornate carvings that reflect the rich cultural heritage of Turkey. It serves as both a practical tool and a symbol of creativity and femininity. Beyond embroidery, this photo hints at other forms of needlework such as crocheting and knitting that were prevalent during this time period in Turkey. These crafts were not merely hobbies but essential skills passed down through generations. Painted by Jean Baptiste Vanmour between 1720 and 1737 using oil paint on canvas, this piece captures the essence of Turkish craftsmanship beautifully. Its small size (33.5 cm x 26.5 cm) invites us to appreciate every fine detail up close. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, let us celebrate the talent and dedication of women like her who preserved their cultural heritage through their exquisite needlework creations.
