EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolour print titled "On the Bosphorous, 1865" by Amadeo Preziosi takes us back to the enchanting atmosphere of 19th-century Istanbul. The artist's delicate brushstrokes beautifully capture the essence of this bustling city on the banks of the famous strait. In this scene, we see a lone man rowing his boat across the tranquil waters of the Bosphorus. The smoke rising from chimneys in distant buildings suggests human activity and adds a touch of realism to an otherwise peaceful setting. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, as he expertly portrays both architectural elements and natural phenomena. The composition exudes a sense of effort and reflection, capturing a fleeting moment in time during this journey on the river. With its wide copy space and serene ambiance, this artwork invites viewers to imagine themselves aboard that rowboat, experiencing life along these historic shores. Amadeo Preziosi was known for his ability to depict daily life in exotic locations with great skill and sensitivity. This particular piece showcases his mastery as a Maltese artist working within European artistic traditions. This print offers us not only a glimpse into another era but also an opportunity for contemplation amidst our busy lives. It reminds us that tranquility can be found even in bustling cities if we take a moment to appreciate their beauty and serenity.
