EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating image titled "To the unattainable: Lament of Mohamed Akram" transports viewers into a world of poetic beauty and longing. Created by the talented artist John Byam Liston Shaw in 1920, this colour lithograph is part of his renowned work, "The Garden of Kama (and other lyrics from India)". In this enchanting illustration, Shaw skillfully captures the essence of love and desire through the figure of Mohamed Akram. Dressed in intricate costumes that reflect Indian culture, Akram exudes an air of mystery and sensuality. The vibrant colors used in the lithograph further enhance its allure. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of the power that literature holds to evoke emotions and transport us to distant lands. The mention of Kama - the Hindu god associated with love - adds another layer to our understanding. It is as if Akram's lament reaches out to touch our souls, reminding us all too well how unattainable desires can be. This print serves as a testament to Shaw's mastery as an artist and his ability to capture both physical beauty and emotional depth on canvas. It invites us into a realm where poetry intertwines with visual artistry, creating a harmonious symphony for our senses. Displayed within this private collection, it stands as a timeless reminder that art has no boundaries – transcending time, culture, and geography – leaving an indelible mark on those fortunate enough to behold it.
