EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "A Persian Harem" takes us back in time to the opulent world of ancient Persia. From Le Costume Ancien et Moderne, Volume I, plate 47, this artwork by Jules Ferrario captures the essence of a luxurious harem setting. As we gaze into the image, our eyes are drawn to an exquisite interior adorned with rich fabrics and intricate details. In the center of the room stands a large mirror reflecting the scene before it. A group of elegantly dressed women can be seen leisurely reclining on plush cushions while enjoying their afternoon tea. The atmosphere is filled with enchanting melodies as one woman delicately plucks at her stringed musical instrument, creating a soothing ambiance for all present. The presence of male figures suggests that they are entertained by these talented musicians and enjoy their company. Intriguingly, amidst this serene setting, a beautiful bird perches on top of an intricately carved lute. This symbolizes freedom and adds an element of mystery to the composition. Giulio Bramati's color lithography technique brings life to every detail within this mesmerizing artwork from c. 1820s-30s. It offers us a glimpse into Persian culture and allows us to appreciate its beauty through an Orientalist lens. This remarkable piece from The Stapleton Collection invites viewers to immerse themselves in the splendor and allure of ancient Persia—a true treasure captured forever in time.
