EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "A General View of Tunis, a celebrated Town in Barbary" takes us back to the year 1782. Created by the talented artist John Keyse Sherwin, it showcases a bustling Mediterranean port in Tunisia, North Africa. The scene is filled with majestic sailing ships gracefully gliding through the waters of the harbor. During this period, Europeans referred to the Berber coastal regions as the Barbary Coast or Berbery. This term encompassed modern-day Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, and Libya. The influence of the Berber people can be seen throughout these lands. Sherwin's engraving beautifully captures both the natural landscape and man-made structures that make up Tunis. From its picturesque shores to its vibrant trade activities, every detail is meticulously depicted in monochrome elegance. As we gaze upon this historical artwork today, we are transported back to a time when water transport played a vital role in international trade and transportation. The galleons showcased in this print symbolize not only maritime power but also cultural exchange between nations. With its rich history and stunning portrayal of Tunis' beauty and significance as an important trading hub on the Barbary Coast during the eighteenth century, this print serves as a testament to our shared human heritage.
