EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to Djewilisk, a small town in Northern Anatolia. The image depicts a coal merchant and his trusty donkey, showcasing the daily life of this region during the late 19th century. The merchant stands proudly beside his tiered baskets filled with coal, ready to be sold to locals. His worn-out face tells tales of hard work and perseverance as he navigates the streets of Djewilisk, providing an essential resource for heating and cooking. Engraved after a drawing by Theophile Deyrolle, this illustration is part of a collection that documents Deyrolle's journey through Lazistan and Armenia in 1869. Published in "Le tour du monde" in 1875, edited by Edouard Charton, it offers a glimpse into the diverse cultures and trades that thrived along these ancient lands. The donkey serves as more than just transportation; it symbolizes the strong bond between man and beast as they navigate challenging terrains together. This partnership speaks volumes about the resilience required for survival during those times. Preserved within Leonard de Selva's private collection, this photograph captures not only an Armenian coal merchant but also highlights street trade practices prevalent at that time. It serves as a reminder of our shared history while honoring those who labored tirelessly to sustain their communities.
