Russians and Turks

Russians and Turks

1764 - Print

Russians and Turks is a print created in 1764 by Daniel Nikolaus Chodowiecki. 



The artwork depicts a group of people, primarily seated, who appear to be of Russian and Turkish descent, based on their attire. 



In the foreground, three individuals are prominently featured. Two are seated close together, one wearing a hooded garment and the other a cap. A third person, seemingly of African descent, sits slightly apart, looking down. 



In the background, a group of figures in what seems to be Turkish attire stand, some gesturing. 



The style is characteristic of etching, with fine lines creating texture and detail in the clothing and facial features. The overall tone is somewhat somber, with the figures appearing contemplative or perhaps weary. The scene is set outdoors, with a suggestion of a landscape in the background. The artwork's dimensions are not provided in the metadata.
