EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the elegance and beauty of a noble lady from Constantinople, adorned in traditional Hammam shoes. The artist behind this masterpiece is none other than Jean-Baptiste Vanmour, known for his exquisite portrayal of oriental subjects. With great attention to detail, Vanmour captures the essence of this Turkish woman's attire and style. The image transports us to a time when fashion was an art form in itself. The Hammam shoes she wears are not just footwear but rather a symbol of her status and cultural heritage. These platform shoes were popular during that era and added height and grace to the wearer's stride. The painting hints at the opulent lifestyle enjoyed by those living in Constantinople during this period. It offers us a glimpse into the world of hot springs, spas, and bathhouses where relaxation was elevated to an art form. The lady's serene expression suggests she is indulging in moments of joie de vivre as she immerses herself in these therapeutic waters. Vanmour skillfully combines elements of orientalism with fine art techniques, creating a composition that captivates viewers' imaginations. This private collection piece serves as a reminder of how different cultures can inspire artistic expressions that transcend time. As we admire this stunning artwork today, we are reminded not only of its aesthetic value but also its historical significance – shedding light on traditions such as folk medicine practices associated with steam baths or thermae prevalent during that era. Let us cherish these glimpses into history
