EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Persane Dans Le Harem" takes us back to the year 1900, offering a glimpse into the intimate world of a Muslim family. The harem, traditionally reserved for women in these households, is depicted as an inviting domestic space. The unknown creator skillfully captures the essence of this private sanctuary. In this scene, we see a young Persian girl peacefully asleep on a divan. Her delicate features and rose-colored skin stand out against her green dress, creating a striking contrast. With her head resting on her elbow and barefooted, she exudes an air of tranquility and innocence. The room itself is adorned with French-inspired furniture and literature scattered about. This fusion of cultures reflects the influence that France had on Iran during this period. It also serves as a reminder that art transcends borders and can bridge different worlds. As we contemplate this image, we are transported to Tehran, where Middle Eastern landscapes come alive through vibrant colors and intricate details. The photogravure technique used adds depth to the picture while maintaining its softness. "Persane Dans Le Harem" not only showcases artistic mastery but also provides insight into Islamic culture at the turn of the century. It reminds us of the importance of preserving cultural heritage through visual storytelling like this remarkable piece from L. Boulanger's collection in Paris.
