Description
This stamp highlights the artist Ali Guermassi (1923-1992) through an intimate work representing a scene of traditional life in a Tunisian patio. We see two men sitting on a carpet, one playing the lute (oud), while a woman brings a tray. The decor is rich in architectural details: earthenware tiles (zellige) and a horseshoe arch with black and white keys. This program celebrates the Tunisian art of living, marked by conviviality and music. It pays tribute to Guermassi, a painter of everyday life, who knew how to capture with tenderness and authenticity the soul of the medina and moments of domestic serenity.
