EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Dervicherie Damas" captures the essence of a bygone era in Damascus, Syria. Taken in 1872 by the talented French photographer Felix Bonfils (1831-1885), this albumen silver print showcases his exceptional skill and artistic vision. In this image, we are transported to the enchanting world of Dervicherie, a mystical place known for its spiritual practices and Sufi rituals. The composition is rich with detail, offering a glimpse into the daily life of the people who inhabited this ancient city. The warm tones and delicate textures captured through Bonfils' lens bring alive every intricate element within the frame. From the intricately patterned tiles adorning the walls to the flowing robes worn by individuals engaged in prayerful contemplation, each aspect tells a story of devotion and tradition. As we gaze upon this photograph, we can almost hear echoes of whispered prayers mingling with melodic chants filling the air. It serves as a testament to both Bonfils' technical prowess as well as his ability to capture moments that transcend time itself. This remarkable piece from Liszt Collection offers us an opportunity to immerse ourselves in history while appreciating artistry at its finest. It reminds us that even though years have passed since it was taken, there is still much beauty and wisdom to be found within these timeless images.
