EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolored print, titled "Ottoman Riders" takes us back to the 18th century Ottoman Empire. Created in Newport in 1712, this historical piece showcases the might and elegance of Mamelukes on horseback. The full-length image captures three senior men dressed in military uniforms, mounted on their majestic horses. The attention to detail is remarkable; each figure carries a spear and wears a distinctive headdress that symbolizes their rank and status within the army. Their historical clothing transports us to an era long gone but not forgotten. The composition of the print emphasizes togetherness as these brave soldiers ride side by side, forming a powerful unit ready for battle. The square format adds symmetry and balance to the image while highlighting the unity among these warriors. As we admire this artwork, we are reminded of the rich history of the Ottoman Empire and its military prowess. Only men were allowed into its ranks during this time, further emphasizing their strength and dedication. This stunning depiction offers a glimpse into an era where horseback riding was not only practical but also essential for warfare. It serves as a testament to both artistry and craftmanship prevalent during that period. With its Western script inscription dating back over three centuries ago, this print stands as a valuable artifact preserving our collective past. Let it serve as a reminder of those who came before us - courageous soldiers who shaped history with every gallop they took on their noble steeds.
