EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate costume of a Dervise or Dervish man, as depicted by Octavian Dalvimart in the 18th century. The image portrays a man adorned in traditional attire, wearing a conical hat and a striped coat over his tunic. A chaplet of beads adorns his girdle, adding an element of spiritual significance to his ensemble. The handcoloured copperplate engraving beautifully captures the details and vibrancy of this unique outfit. This particular illustration is taken from William Alexander's translation of "Picturesque Representations of the Dress and Manners of the Turks" published in London in 1814. During the Regency era, also known as the Georgian era, travel to Turkey was popular among Europeans seeking exotic experiences. This print serves as both an artistic representation and a historical documentation of Turkish fashion during that time period. The Dervish man's attire reflects Islamic traditions prevalent in the Ottoman Empire at that time. The careful attention given to every aspect - from his conical hat to his staff - highlights not only fashion but also cultural identity. Bridgeman Images presents this remarkable print for art enthusiasts who appreciate fine craftsmanship and are intrigued by different cultures. It offers viewers an opportunity to delve into history while admiring the beauty and diversity found within global fashion traditions.
