EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Montenegrins going to market at Cattaro" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of 19th century Montenegro. The image showcases a vibrant scene as local Montenegrins make their way to the market in Cattaro, now known as Kotor. The composition is rich with details that bring this historical moment to life. Men and women dressed in traditional attire fill the narrow streets, carrying baskets and sacks filled with goods for trade. The architecture of the buildings surrounding them reflects the unique Balkan style, adding an authentic touch to the scene. As we gaze upon this print from a private collection, we are transported into a bygone era where daily routines were intertwined with cultural traditions. It serves as a reminder of how markets have always been vital hubs for social interaction and economic exchange. This engraving was originally created as an illustration for Edwin Hopper's book "The World its Cities and Peoples". Its inclusion in this publication aimed to provide readers with glimpses into different cultures across Europe. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, we can still appreciate this remarkable piece today. It offers us not only a visual feast but also invites contemplation on our shared European heritage and the timeless significance of community gathering places like markets.
