Illuminations - Miniatures by Mohamed Racim
Algerian miniatures by Mohamed Racim Born at the end of the last century in the old Casbah district, Mohamed Racim tasted from childhood the charms and delights of the Algiers life of yesteryear. His miniatures are so many scenes through which he transmits to us the flavor and deep values of daily life of the time. Algerian princess The lives of Algerian princesses have been handed down to us by history through multiple stories, often full of fantasy. Very imbued with this life that was both pleasant and picturesque, Mohamed Racim extended the dream, creating miniatures where the delicate beauty of these daughters of beys or deys, dressed in silks, brocades and jackets richly embroidered with gold, is enhanced by his fine line and his very sought-after chromatic touch.
