Sliman Mansour (Palestine, born 1947)Shaheda Min Tel al-Zaatar (The Witness of Tel al-Zaatar) oil on canvas, framedsigned 'Sliman Mansour' in Arabic and English and dated '1976' (lower left), executed in 197694 x 77cm (37 x 30 5/16in).Footnotes:The Witness of Tel al-ZaatarA rare and poignant 1976 painting by Sliman Mansour in memory of the Tel al-Zaatar Massacre, and the earliest work by the artist to come to auctionProvenance: Property from the collection of a Diplomat at the Embassy of Qatar, London, thence by descent to the present ownerNote: The authenticity of the present work has been confirmed by the artistBonhams is proud to present this rare painting by one of the most sought-after Palestinian artists of our generation, Sliman Mansour. Mansour was born in 1947 and spent his childhood around the verdant hills and fields of Birzeit and then spent his adolescence in Bethlehem and Jerusalem. His childhood experiences left a significant mark on his work, heightening a sense of gradual loss in Palestine, notably after the occupation of the West Bank and Jerusalem in 1967. His early encounters also presented him with the symbols and images he would later use to preserve and highlight the Palestinian identity.The present work was executed in 1976, widely considered Mansour's artistic prime and shortly after he produced his critically acclaimed and widely known masterpiece Jamal Al Mahamel. The painting depicts a sorrowful and ghoulish figure playing a shebbabeh or traditional Palestinian shepherd's flute. The figure is a witness to the harrowing Tel el-Zaatar Massacre which happened in the very same year, one of the greatest tragedies to befall Palestinian refugees during the Lebanese Civil War. The siege of the Tel el-Zataar refugee camp began in January of 1976 with an attack by Christian Lebanese militias led by the Lebanese Front as part of a wider campaign to expel Palestinians, especially those affiliated with the opposing Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) from northern Beirut. After five months, the siege turned into a full-scale military assault in June and ended with the massacre in August 1976 which resulted in the death of over 2,000 civilians. The green figure in the current work is both noble and ghoulish, representing the mixture of dignity and sorrow which characterises the Palestinian plight for freedom and making use of red and green colour palettes which Palestinians at the time were banned from using by Israeli authorities. She stands against a backdrop of typically Palestinian brick dwellings and possibly ancient ruins, Indicating the rich tapestry of civilisations that Palestine historically harboured. As a female the figure also pays tribute to the increasing role of women in Palestinian activism during the period and also highlights the particular tragedy of the massacre which saw women as the principal survivors. By using symbols derived from Palestinian life, culture, history, and tradition; Mansour uniquely illustrates Palestinians' resolve and connection with their land. His paintings epitomize art as a form of resistance. With orange trees, he represents land lost in the Nakba of 1948. With olive trees, he represents land occupied in 1967. With women wearing traditional embroidered dresses, he represents Palestinian land and the Palestinian revolution. With the landscape of Palestine and its stone terraces, he represents the mark of Palestinian farmers on the land. With images of Jerusalem, and the glistening Dome of the Rock, he represents the Palestinian homeland and the dream of return.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
