EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the suburbs of Teheran, present-day Iran. The drawing, skillfully crafted by Jules Laurens (1825-1901), offers a glimpse into the city's landscape during the mid-19th century. It was created to illustrate Arthur Gobineau's journey to Persia from 1855 to 1858, as documented in "Le tour du monde, nouveau journal des voyages" published in Paris in 1860. The intricate engraving showcases Laurens' attention to detail as he captures the essence of this Persian city. The image transports us through time and space, allowing us to witness a moment frozen in history. We can almost imagine ourselves strolling through these ancient streets, surrounded by bustling markets and ornate architecture. As we explore this snapshot of Teheran's suburbs, we are reminded of the rich cultural heritage that permeates every corner of Iran. From its vibrant bazaars filled with exotic spices and textiles to its majestic mosques adorned with intricate tilework, this drawing encapsulates the allure of Persian civilization. Through Leonard de Selva's lens, we are granted access to a world long gone yet forever preserved within this remarkable artwork. This print serves as a testament not only to Laurens' artistic talent but also as a window into an era that shaped modern-day Iran.
