EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Gulbeyaz" by Athol Mayhew takes us back to the enchanting streets of Albania in the late 19th century. The engraving, masterfully created by Richard Caton Woodville II, beautifully captures a scene filled with cultural richness and historical significance. In this bustling street scene, we witness a troop of bearers carrying torches as they lead Gulbeyaz, an elegant maiden dressed in traditional Albanian attire. Her palfrey gracefully carries her through the courtyard gates while halting momentarily to admire the mesmerizing sight before them. The atmosphere is alive with energy as fires illuminate the night sky and create a warm circle of light around Gulbeyaz. The falling shadows cast intriguing patterns on the rear porch where curious onlookers gather to catch a glimpse of this extraordinary procession. Every detail in this artwork tells a story - from the intricate engravings on Gulbeyaz's saddle to the aga standing proudly beside her. It transports us to another time and place, allowing us to immerse ourselves in European history. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we can't help but marvel at how Athol Mayhew skillfully captured both the beauty and mystery that shrouded Albania during that era. This print serves as a testament to his talent as an artist and allows us to appreciate Europe's rich cultural heritage through his eyes.
