EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the village of Old Tashkent, the capital of Russian Turkestan. The image showcases a caravanserail, a traditional inn for travelers and their caravans, beautifully engraved after a drawing by Emile Bayard. This artwork was created to illustrate Basile Vereschagin's remarkable journey to Central Asia in 1867-1868. The scene is filled with bustling activity as humans and animals intermingle outside the caravanserail. The intricate details captured by Bayard transport us into this vibrant world from another era. We can almost hear the sounds of hooves on dusty roads and feel the energy of merchants haggling over goods. The historic significance of this image is further enhanced by its publication in "Le tour du monde" in 1873, edited by Edouard Charton and published by Hachette edition in Paris. It has since become part of the esteemed Selva Collection. Leonard de Selva's photograph preserves this valuable piece of history for future generations to appreciate. Through his lens, we are granted a glimpse into an era when trade routes connected distant lands, cultures collided, and Tashkent thrived as a hub for commerce. As we admire this print, let us reflect on how travel has shaped our world throughout history and appreciate the beauty found within these ancient walls that have witnessed countless tales unfold over centuries gone by.
