Description
Set of 6 Plexiglas-framed colour prints depicting popular imagery of pilgrimage sites, holy places and religious figures from Islam. Approx. 77 x 52 cm (viewing area). Signs of wear. Provenance: Collection of Guy Yves Jacquet (1931–1991) Note: This exhibition is based on a collection of images acquired at markets in Morocco and Kashmir, illustrating the imagination and collective memory of Muslim society. The images presented in the forthcoming lots were a real passion for Guy Jacquet, which found its place within his collection. Indeed, these images illustrated a cultural code, a set of symbols recognisable to members of the same community. The theme is traditional, featuring holy sites and places of pilgrimage, accompanied by a juxtaposition of images reminiscent of a comic strip, and is intended to be accessible to the public.
