EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a magnificent Turban shawl from the Fatimid period in Egypt, specifically during the reign of al-Musta‘lī in 1094. The intricate craftsmanship and opulence of this piece are truly awe-inspiring. The Turban shawl is exquisitely woven using a combination of plain weave and inwoven tapestry techniques, utilizing fine linen, silk, and gold file threads. Its overall dimensions measure an impressive 62.3 x 54.6 cm (24 1/2 x 21 1/2 in. ), making it a remarkable work of art. The vibrant colors and delicate patterns adorning this Turban shawl reflect the artistic mastery prevalent during the Fatimid period. The golden accents add a touch of regality to its already luxurious appearance. This artifact is not only visually stunning but also holds historical significance as it represents the reign of al-Musta‘lī, one of Egypt's prominent rulers during that era. The Liszt Collection has beautifully captured every detail of this Turban shawl print, allowing us to appreciate its beauty even if we cannot witness it firsthand.
