EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in this exquisite wood engraving from an English newspaper of 1854, we are transported back to the opulent world of the Turkish sultans. The focal point of this print is none other than the Turkish sultan's umbrella, a true symbol of power and prestige. Crafted with meticulous detail, this parasol stands as both a gift and an ornament fit for royalty. Its ornate design showcases the artistry and craftsmanship that was highly valued during that era. Every intricate carving tells a story, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of Turkey. The textural quality of the wood engraving brings life to every stroke, allowing us to appreciate its beauty even after all these years. As we gaze upon it, we can almost feel ourselves standing amidst a crowd of men in traditional Middle Eastern attire, witnessing history unfold before our eyes. This remarkable piece serves as a reminder not only of the splendor surrounding sultans but also their influence on society at large. It represents their ability to command attention and respect through objects as seemingly mundane as an umbrella. Thanks to The Granger Collection's preservation efforts, we have been granted access to this extraordinary glimpse into history. Let us cherish this moment captured in time and marvel at how something as simple as an umbrella can hold such significance.
