Painting Description
L'Thriktar-Agassi, plate 6 from 'Recueil de Cent Estampes représentant différentes Nations du Levant tirées sur les Tableaux Peints d'après Nature...' is an exquisite example of early 18th-century European engraving, created by Gerard Jean Baptiste Scotin (1671-1716) and based on original paintings by Jean Baptiste Vanmour. This work is part of a larger collection that translates to "Collection of One Hundred Prints Representing Different Nations of the Levant Taken from Paintings Made from Nature," which was published between 1707 and 1708. The collection is a significant historical document that offers a visual ethnographic record of the diverse cultures and peoples of the Ottoman Empire during that period.
Jean Baptiste Vanmour, a French painter, was commissioned by the French ambassador to the Ottoman Empire, Marquis de Ferriol, to create a series of paintings depicting the various ethnic groups, social classes, and occupations within the empire. Vanmour's works were highly regarded for their attention to detail and ethnographic accuracy, capturing the attire, customs, and daily life of the subjects he portrayed. These paintings were later transformed into engravings by skilled artists like Scotin, making them accessible to a broader European audience.
L'Thriktar-Agassi, as plate 6 in this collection, exemplifies the meticulous craftsmanship and cultural curiosity of the period. The engraving would have been created using a copper plate, meticulously incised to reproduce Vanmour's original painting with precision. Scotin's expertise in engraving ensured that the intricate details of the subjects' clothing, expressions, and surroundings were faithfully rendered, providing viewers with a vivid and informative glimpse into the Levantine world.
The 'Recueil de Cent Estampes' served not only as an artistic endeavor but also as an educational tool, offering insights into the diversity and complexity of the Ottoman Empire to a European audience that was largely unfamiliar with these distant lands. This collection remains a valuable resource for historians, art enthusiasts, and scholars interested in the cross-cultural exchanges and representations of the early 18th century.
